Captain Joey Miller, owner and master craftsman behind Sinepuxent Boatworks on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, is preserving a proud maritime tradition through his passion for handcrafted wooden boats. Specializing in classic “Wood Plank on Frame” construction, Captain Miller builds custom Carolina and Deadrise-style boats that honor the heritage of the Chesapeake Bay and North Carolina coastlines.

Every boat he builds is a unique reflection of time-tested design and craftsmanship, purpose-built for both beauty and performance.
