Hi,
I am taking a trip to Chesapeak Bay next month with some friends of mine and we would like to stay there for about 1 week. We have seen skipjacks in Chesapeak Bay and we were wondering is it possible to sail on them. Have anyone been there before? Can we get some information on this? Thanks a lot in advance! bye

Hi,
skipjacks were first introduced in Chesapeak Bay in 19th century and since then they bacame the most popular ships for dredging oysters. They are now tourist attraction so you can sail on them for a price. It is great and unusual experience to be in a skipjack surrounded by the landscapes of Chesapeak Bay.
