The Catboat "Patience" is a traditional sailing craft with a design that dates back to the 1800's. Built in 1898 in Osterville Mass where it was originally used as a fishing boat. It has a very shallow draft, often no more than two feet with the centerboard pulled up, and makes an ideal boat for cruising the Chesapeake.
