Welcome and congratulations, the Old Town canoe with hull identification number XTC96096M73I and serial number 196096 is a 17 foot long, ABS Chipewyan Tripper model that weighed 75 pounds. It was built in June, 1973. The original exterior vinyl color was blue. It shipped on August 8th, 1973 to Chicago, Illinois. The back side of the scan indicates that the warranty card was returned from Oak Park, Illinois in September, 1973. Scans showing both sides this build record can be found below.
This scan and several hundred thousand more were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. A description of the project to preserve these records is available at http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/records/ if you want more details. I hope that you will donate, join or renew your membership to the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/about-wcha to learn more about the WCHA and https://www.woodencanoe.org/pricing-plans/join to donate or join.
It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer this description doesn't match the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
