The Captain Adams was built in 1982 as a reminder that the gundalows were once a familiar sight throughout the Piscataqua region and that the flat-bottomed sailing barges were crucial in the economic development and success of numerous towns including York and South Berwick, Maine, and Dover, Portsmouth, Durham, Newmarket, Stratham and Exeter.
All of these towns are linked by the rivers connecting to the Piscataqua River and the deep-water port of Portsmouth, and all of these towns depended on the gundalows to deliver bulk cargoes and raw and finished materials, such as cord wood, salt marsh hay, bricks, cotton and cloth.
