This is a Seaworthy Boats logo that mentions Chester Rimmer as a Naval Architect. Chester was a MIT graduate in naval architecture. This type of label was used prior to the Jacrim logos. So this was used for the first few years of the company. If a boat has this label it was produced in the late 1920’s. The Seaworthy name was not an early company name but a name for the boats produced because they were build to be seaworthy.
I have a Chester Rimmer Seaworthy sailboat with the above logo on it. No sail, but mast is in good shape. Do you know the approx. value of it, and is there a market for this boat by collectors?
Hello Mary Pat,
I would have to see a picture as Jacrim made many different boats. Yes there is value to them, some much more than others. Jacrim produced boats in the 1920’s until 1934.
If you will send me your email address I can send you pictures. It is a 26” model.
I have one of these boats with the seaworthy emblem it has no mast it is 26 1/4 inches long and 6 in. wide at the center and in good shape. this is my e-mail address and would like to know what you found out about its worth. i will send a photo to your cell phone if you would give me your phone # please . I will not share it with anyone my cell # is 508 272 9615 thanks my computer is not working to send photos
Hello Robert,
For value on a Jacrim boat it would be better to contact Robert at SeaworthyJacrim.com. He is a better expert on Jacrim than I am.
