Hi. I have OT canoe 204335. I measured it at 15'8". Its heavy and the construction looks like old fiberglass. Can anyone tell me a little more about it? Thanks!
 
Hi.

Your canoe is a 1974 Carleton 16 footer with keel. Attached also are the pages from the 1974 Old Town Catalog describing the Carleton.

The scan of this record is attached below-- click on it to get a larger image. This scan and several hundred thousand others were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. A description of the project to preserve these records is available at http://www.wcha.org/ot_records/ if you want more details. I hope that you and anyone else reading this will join or renew membership in the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://www.wcha.org/join.php to renew.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions. Providing photographs would help with identification, as would an accurate measurement of the boat's
length.

Thanks Dan! I just realized I had the SN wrong. It's 204355 (not 204335). Would you mind digging out the info again? I just made a donation to WCHA; hopefully that helps compensate for my error! Fred.
 
Here you go, Fred. 16' Fiber Glass - made in 1974 and sold in 1976.

Let me thank you on behalf of all the WCHA members for your donation!

Dan
