173

[DannyC]

I recently bought a cedar plank canoe and I'd like to know what make and age it is. The number 173 is stamped into the stern stem, but the bow stem is worn down so there's no number visible. The canoe is 13ft 9in long, 31in across and 12 inches deep.

Thanks
Dan

Definitely Canadian-built, maybe a Chestnut?
