First post about my 41 year old Old Town “Kennebec” (I think) model canoe. I purchased this canoe a few months back on “OU” for $100 along with a couple of mismatched oars. It works fine without any need of drastic repairs but this old retired “Squid” just can’t leave it there. I want it to be in better shape.
The S/N on it is XTC45284M82L
There are no other markings on the canoe other than the “Old Town” logo’s on each side. I’ve been comparing pictures and descriptions from vintage Old Town Catalogs and deduced that it may be a “Kennebec” model.
I really needs replacement deck plates but just need to be sure of the model and measurements of the deck plates before making the investment. The seats could also use replacement too.
Any thoughts here ?
This photo looks exactly like my canoe
