This is a scratch build of a flat bottomed boat that frequented the rivers and estuaries from the 1600's to the early 1900's. used to ferry supplies and goods from the seacoast, inland, these flat bottomed barges were important, in the development of remote town and settlements in the northeast. when the open road and train tracks finally coursed trough the rugged terrain, their usefulness came to an end, marking the end of an era. there were many different types and styles of the Gundalow, they say that no two were the same. one man credited to the Gundalow, was a fellow by the name of Edward H Adams, who after the demise of the Gundalow, dedicated the rest of his life to the preservation of the Great Bay Estuaries. His Gundalow, the Fanny M, was one of the last remaining boats to be seen in this diminishing era.
