Chesapeake Pinky with Case
The model of the Chesapeake Pinky is kit built by Frank Black with great attention to detail.  The sails are carefully tied to the two booms, the lines are coiled on the deck, the tiller and rudder move, and the cockpit has a wooden grate. 

The Chesapeake Pinky design is derived from the larger schooners that originated in 16th century Europe and ruled the New England fishing industry from early 1800’s to the middle of the century.  The boat design received its name from its uplifted, narrow or “pinked” stern.  The hull design made the Pinky graceful and stable under sail. The Pinky was introduced to the Chesapeake Bay in a shallow draft form that was ideal for fishing and for pleasure sailing.
