Curious about Wooden Canoes
Hello,
Such great info on this site which I’ve been reading for years...
Hoping to identify my new (to me) canoe...
Here are some measurements as best as I could get.
Thank-you for any input offered.
Length: 15'
Beam: (inside planking, widest point, below center thwart) 32.5"
Depth: (inside planking to top of gunwales) 14 & 3/4"
Ribs: 1.5" (not tapered)
Spacing: 1.5" - although some of the spacing is not exact if you look closely (Is this normal?)
Cant Ribs: 4"
Planking: 3 & 3/4"
Weight: 66.5 lbs
Has all square head screws and a 3 number stamp on stern stem "267" if that means anything. There is no remnants of a deck sticker or plate.
My best guess from what I've read here and there and by the look of it, is a prospector of some sort.
