Who hid my paddle?
It's an old town. I checked the search function so pretty sure it's not already on record here. I just purchased it for my own use. Needs work. thanks in advance.

The Old Town with serial number 167066 is a 15 foot long fifty pound model with a keel. It was built between January and June, 1958. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It shipped on June 16th, 1958 to Flint, Michigan. A scan showing this build record can be found by following the link at the thumbnail image attached below.

This scan and several hundred thousand more were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others as you probably know well. 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/about-wcha to learn more about the WCHA and http://www.wcha.org/store/membership to join.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your canoe. Please reply here if you have any other questions. Thanks,

Benson
