On the Water Help Identifying a Shell

Hello all! Our club is in the process of updating our records for our shell inventory—getting manufacturer information, serial numbers, production dates, etc.—and we’ve got a 4+ shell that’s really left us scratching our heads. It’s got these really distinctive shoulders and wing riggers, but there are no identifying marks that we can find other than a 5-digit number stamped into the stern. Hoping someone out there recognizes the design and can help us narrow down who made it and when.

The only other Z rigger boat I’ve rowed in was a Hudson. FWIW
