The Nellie Crockett is a Chesapeake Bay oyster buy-boat built for Andrew A. Crockett of Tangier, Virginia, in 1925. She is located at Georgetown, Maryland, USA. She was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1994.The Nellie Crockett was built specifically to operate as a buy-boat, making the rounds of the Chesapeake Bay oyster beds to buy oysters directly from the harvesters, typically sail-powered skipjacks or oyster tongers. This allowed the oyster dredges to remain on the beds, avoiding the need to return to port when full. Buy-boats typically gave a lower price than a dockside sale, but most oystermen considered this a fair trade for not losing time on a run back to the dock. She is considered one of the best-preserved examples of this type of vessel.

Hack's Point is an unincorporated community in Cecil County, Maryland, United States.During the 20th century, Hacks Point became a summer community with many seasonal homes, but this attractively situated place on the Bohemia River goes back to the earliest days of the colony.

A ferry provided a means to cross the river here until 1867, when a bridge was built.As the automobile started providing greater mobility in the 20th century, residents from nearby urban areas in Pennsylvania and Delaware found this to be a fine spot for fishing, bathing and boating and by 1940 its role as a summer community was fully established. After World War I, more developments were platted on the shore of the Bohemia River.Today, this tiny Cecil County resort continues to thrive and many of the buildings there are still seasonal vacation homes.
