CHESAPEAKE BAY,:
with more than 4000 miles of shoreline Chesapeake is Americas largest inland estuary. A century ago this was by far the nations best lit waterway.The earlier lighthouses were conical stone structures but the vicious shoals of the bay required screw piled construction which engineers developed by the 1850's
