Default Oyster Sloop Christeen (1883)
I was out in Oyster Bay last weekend and got to check out the Christeen, which is an 1883 gaff rigged oyster sloop. It is supposedly the oldest oyster sloop in North America.

Really neat. Looking at that makes me appreciate modern technology. She's a real beauty.
