Wooden Canoes are in the Blood
In Memoriam
Could I have the build record for this one? Tripping bud needs to know. Thank you.
 
The Old Town canoe with serial number 166982 is a 15 foot long fifty pound model with a keel. It was built between January and May, 1958. The original exterior paint color was bright red. It shipped on May 21st, 1958 to Fairfield, Maine. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the attached thumbnail image below.

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 canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.

Benson
