The Kennebec canoe with number 100055 is a 17 foot long "Kineo Special" model shown on page 302 of volume three in the Kennebec ledgers. It was planked by Roy on February 24th, 1923. The canvas covering was applied by Tuttle on March 3rd, 1923. The first filler coat was applied by Grant on the same day. It was railed by Judkins on March 31st, 1923. The original color was red. It was shipped on May, 2nd 1923 to location "23-259". This location is probably an order number but we don't currently have enough information to identify it.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your canoe. Another way to find an good home for your canoe is to list it at http://classifieds.wcha.org/ in the classifieds here. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
