Mathews Maritime Foundation is a non-profit organization located in Mathews, Virginia that is dedicated to preserving and promoting the maritime history and culture of the Chesapeake Bay region. The foundation was established in 1998 and has since become a leading authority on traditional boats, boat building, and maritime skills.

The foundation offers a variety of programs and events that showcase the rich maritime heritage of the Chesapeake Bay. These include educational workshops, boat building classes, and sailing trips on historic vessels. They also host the annual Mathews Maritime Heritage Festival, which features live music, food, and activities for all ages.

One of the foundation's main initiatives is the preservation and restoration of historic boats. They have several ongoing projects, including the restoration of the Chesapeake Bay Buy Boat, which was built in 1925 and is one of the last remaining examples of this type of vessel. They also maintain a museum that houses a collection of traditional boats, tools, and artifacts related to Chesapeake Bay maritime history.

In addition to their preservation efforts, the Mathews Maritime Foundation is committed to educating the public about the importance of maritime history and its relevance to contemporary life. They strive to inspire a new generation of boat builders, sailors, and stewards of the Chesapeake Bay.
