Rod Tait (Orca Boats)
Designer/Builder
I am working on what is believed to be a Chestnut Prospector with serial number 23530. The boat is just shy of 16 feet at around 15'8" and a beam of 35 in. It has wood slat seats, one thwart, standard shaped decks for a Chestnut but smaller ribs than I have found in most Chestnuts. Any info would be appreciated.
