Blue Viking
Wooden Canoe Maniac
Had a knock on my door a little while ago and the person showed me pics and build record for a 1913 double ended, 2 station rowing boat (Canoe) with tiller.... that he has in his barn....Built for his family and has been in the family the whole time....Serial number is 25857....
This elderly gentleman has no desire to restore it after conversation...Plus its too heavy for him...He is willing to let it go I believe...If anyone is interested in it, I can hook you up with him...He saw a new one several years back on the showroom floor at Old Town and I believe that if you contact Benson Gray as to the asking price he can tell you...so I DO know he will not give it away.
Regretably I can not afford it or I would not be posting this...The pictures he brought show it to be in remarkably good condtion....Also, there is a picture of this boat in the book that was written about the history of the Old Town Canoe Company.... So I am putting it out to anyone who may be interested . Thanks for reading
