— V Bottom —
Potomac River dory boats were one of the few V-bottom workboats built on the Chesapeake that were planked fore-and-aft on the bottom, rather than cross-planked. This type was developed on the Potomac River in the later 1800s for oystering under sail, and was built mainly in St. Mary's County, Maryland. Let's See was built as a powerboat by William T. "Buddy" Gibson of River Spring, Maryland, in 1934. She displays the characteristic paint scheme along the sheer of red, green, and yellow stripes. Let's See is one of only eight traditional dory boats surviving today.| HM Number | HM2K4J |
