The Old Town canoe with serial number 154405 is 16 feet long, CS (common sense or standard) grade, Yankee model with red western cedar planking, open spruce gunwales, and equipped with a keel and either a floor rack or outside stems (the date stamp splits the line – can’t tell which it is). It was built in 1950-51 and was shipped on May 26, 1952 to Detroit , Michigan. Its original exterior finish was dark green enamel. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link behind the thumbnail image attached below.
