Looking for a unique gift this holiday season!

These are our morning glory dories, also known as beer dories!

These dories have a 5' bottom and are just for display, the Morning Glory is popular with restaurants and retailers who are seeking an authentic Maritime presentation. They've served as salad and oyster bars, anchored a multitude of product displays, and have been the neatest-ever beverage cooler at a number or weddings, private homes and cottages. A scale production of our working dories, built the same tried and true way!

Available for purchase at The Dory Shop or online https://picton-castle.myshopify.com/
