Classic Boat Photography | Chesapeake Bay

Experience the enduring beauty of classic powerboats through the lens of award-winning coastal photographer Bill Mish. Captured at the renowned Chesapeake Bay ACBS Boat Festival in St. Michaels, Maryland, this collection highlights the elegance, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal of vintage wooden boats still in use today. Each photograph reflects the region’s deep-rooted maritime tradition — from gleaming varnished decks to the bold curves of hand-built hulls.

These Chesapeake Bay boat portraits serve as both art and archive, preserving a fading but beloved era of recreational boating. Whether you're a collector, coastal enthusiast, or admirer of classic marine design, this gallery offers a striking visual tribute to nautical craftsmanship.
