159280

The Old Town build record for serial number 159280 shows a 15 foot long lapstrake outboard model boat in AA (or top) grade with a 54 inch mid deck, a keel, outside stems, and a floor rack. It was built between January and February, 1953. The original exterior color was white. It shipped on March 10th, 1953 to Freeport, New York.

This scan and several hundred thousand others 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-the-wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://store.wcha.org/WCHA-New-Membership.html to join.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your boat. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
