Serial # for Old Town or Stowe canoe

My family has an 8 foot wooden canoe that I am trying to identify. Dad has had it about 30+ years.

Serial # is SWE 09110-277

I also posted about it in the general forum.

Thanks!

You have a canoe from the Stowe Canoe Company in Vermont that was shipped in February of 1977. See http://www.boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/hin.htm for more information about interpreting a old hull identification number like this. The company was in business from 1973 to 1991 according to the Coast Guard database. Additional details are available if you search these forums for other messages about Stowe canoes. Old fiberglass canoes like this generally sell for a few hundred dollars. Similar canoes are available from https://merrimackcanoes.com/ for comparison. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
