Scott
Chambers (1949-
): A graduate in
Business from Central
Washington State
University, Mr.
Chambers followed
his family’s
120-year legacy
of shipbuilding
by turning to the
creation of half-hull
models in 1973.
Hoping through his
art to help “preserve
this nation’s
rich maritime heritage,”
his pieces can be
seen at numerous
east and west coast
yacht clubs, the
Peabody Essex Museum
in Salem, Massachusetts,
and in various restaurants
and private collections
throughout the United
States.
