Sea Chests and Sea Chest Plans

Welcome to Classic Sea Chests & Display Boats, I build classic sea chests, sea captain's ditty boxes, tool chests, and display models of lapstrake work boats from the 1800s. The sea chest signature dovetails and pins are hand cut producing a unique set of dovetails and pins for every chest. Click on the photographs for larger views.

These fine custom built chests and display boats are an excellent graduation, birthday, or retirement gift. All of the chests are built from solid wood.

I studied traditional wooden boatbuilding at the Northwest School of Wooden Boat Building in Port Townsend, Washington. The joinery techniques taught at the school are used to build the chests and display boats.
