Old Town H. W. Model Canoe #149621

Hello Jesse--

Old Town 149621 is an 18 foot CS (common sense) grade HW model canoe completed between September 1947 and May 1948. It has open spruce gunwales and ash decks/thwarts/seat frames, a keel and half ribs. It was painted dark green and shipped to Newington, Connecticut on August 11, 1950.

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 will join or renew your membership to 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.

Kathy
