Anyone able to Id this canoe?

Found this canoe....looks interesting. Any ideas on make? Mystery Canoe...The thwarts look familiar and the decks look Rushton. Not sure about the seats.

Thanks,

Adam

Hi,

Definately not Rushton, the early thwarts were straight and the late ones were much nicer that these. The rear seat of the Rushton is wider at the front that at the back. The only thing Rushton is the heart deck, but Racine had that deck too.

I have never seen factory seats like the ones on this boat.

Thanks Paul. Any idea of where I might find more info? I have looked on Dragonfly, but there is not a lot there about some of the more obscure makes.

Ok, looks like Dan is the man. My dad and I are picking it up this weekend. I will post some more photos once that has happened.

Thanks again to all

Looks like a Racine to me. I just sold one with the
same seat frames.
