Description: The CHESAPEAKE BAY FLATTIEAll Wood Display ModelAn Apprentice KitVintage ~ New in Box ~ Unused ~ Discontinued Around the turn of the century, flat-bottomed, shallow draft work boats, called "Flatties", were used along the coast of Virginia and North Carolina to carry produce down shoal creeks to market, and for hauling oysters from shallow flats and bars.
