Brass bow skid hardware

[ADKer]

I have an 1929 Old Town sailing canoe that requires a brass bow replacement. On our Mad River canoe we called them skid plates and not sure what the wood canvas nomenclature is. Does anyone know where to acquire one? Thanks.

Welcome, these are generally called stem bands or bang plates. They are available from the links below and other sources.
