The current owner of this canoe thinks that it has been 'glassed over the original canvas. He says there's no hull number evident. If I learn anything more about it from him I'll pass it along. My sister spotted the boat and sent me the pics from her phone, I never got to see it in person. She is an attorney and not given to inaccuracy, so I have to trust her on the serial #. She did say that the hyphens were hers, meant to denote spaces in the stamped serial #. If I learn anything more I'll pass it along.
