Hi-
I wonder if anyone can help me find the build sheet for my 1954 Old Town runabout, 13-6? It's serial number 160603. Thanks for any help.

The Old Town build record for serial number 160603 shows a 13.5 foot long lapstrake outboard model boat in AA (or top) grade with a 48 inch middle deck, a keel, outside stems, and a floor rack. It was built between July and August, 1953. The original exterior color was white. It shipped on August 20th, 1953 to Camden, Maine. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the thumbnail image attached 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 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 http://www.wcha.org/store/membership to join.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your boat. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
