ID help

[Serge Lemay]

Hello everyone. So this fine piece came in today, and need help (a little!) with getting a bit of a pedigree for it.

Here are a few specs: 192''X33''X11,5 or 11,75''. Ribs are 1 3\4''X 3\8''- 7\16'' non-tapered, planks are 3 5\8''X 3\16''.
And some pictures.

It has been repaired (badly, not by me!)... So, I think I might to bite a bit of the bullet on this one...

Does it have any serial numbers on the inside stems? See http://forums.wcha.org/index.php?threads/791/ if you aren't sure where to look.

None that I can see...
I'm thinking Old Town. The owner thinks Peterborough...

An Old Town would have serial numbers on the stems and slightly different decks. My guess is a Chestnut, Peterborough, or PeterNut.

After taking a bit of time, I think it's a Rideau\604/16S. Need to find the year of construction.

Hi Serge,
I think you have a later Peterborough Champlain.
