Typically used to catch whitebait and shrimps in the Thames Estuary the Bawley is characterised by full, but relatively shallow hull lines and a transom stern very similar to that of a Thames barge in shape, giving the Bawley good sail carrying ability. The rig is typically a lose footed main with an almost vertical leech and a large topsail for catching the light airs as they made their way up the Thames.
