Kayoshk
Mackinaw boat, ca.1890
The Kayoshk has spent most of her life zipping around the Oliphant Bay area. Sailed by various families and generations, this gull-winged Mackinaw-style boat was an Oliphant Regatta champion for many years running. She was built in Wiarton around 1890 and has now been restored by the Marine Heritage Society of Southampton.
The Kayoshk’s name comes from the Ojibwemowin word gayaashk, a singular, animate noun meaning “seagull”.
