Buyboats are probably best known for the service they provided, purchasing oysters directly from watermen out on the oystering grounds. The arrangement was convenient because watermen didn’t need to stop oystering and offload dockside. Once a buyboat had taken on as many as 2,700 bushels of oysters, the buyboat skipper would take the tasty bivalves shoreside to be shucked and processed.
