Ask about the Chesapeake Bay Buyboat Association’s (CBBA) yearly cruise and scheduled functions throughout the Chesapeake Bay and tributaries. We provide a part of history in real life by bringing our buyboats to different ports to support your planned functions. 

E-Mail to find out which buyboats are located close to you. We will help you find those that will be able to support you in your effort to provide a part of history at your planned function.  Find out what is required from you to have buyboats at your functions.

The larger buyboats have a maximum draft of six feet with some having a maximum beam of twenty feet. The largest one is in Florida with an overall length of eighty four feet to the smallest in Virginia with a length of forty five feet.  Most of the buyboats on the Chesapeake are between fifty five to sixty five feet in length, with a draft of no more than six feet.

Each of the owners are proud of the buyboats and are happy to have visitors aboard for a show and tell about each boat and what they provided  to the oyster industry.
