Jimmy Steele Peapod -Under Contract
The peapod is as synonymous with Maine as lobster, blueberries or a moose.
As far back as can be tracked, the peapod was the vessel of choice for those needing to travel the rocky, oceanic waters of Maine.
The first modern peapods made with plank-on-frame construction were built on North Haven Island, Maine, in the 1870s.
The peapod has evolved in different ways in different places, but there is one fact that remains consistent through its history- it's a boat built and designed for utilitarian use.
During the summer months, these peapods are a familiar sight along the coast, whether accompanying the Maine schooner fleet or ferrying passengers to the dock from the handsomest yachts in the harbor. As someone once said, it’s the classiest way to travel.
Built by Jimmy Steele in 1989 this Peapod includes a single-axle trailer with new tires, oars and row locks.
