- Thread starter K special
- Start date
Welcome and congratulations, the Kennebec canoe with number 100826 is an 17 foot long Kineo Special model as shown on page 298 of volume three in the Kennebec ledgers. It was planked by Beaudry on March 8th, 1924. Tuttle applied the canvas covering on March 15th, 1924. The first filler coat was applied by Grant on the same day. Tuttle applied the second filler coat on April 12th, 1924. The rails were installed by Oaks on April 19th, 1924. It had outside stems and the original color was green. This shipped to location 24-193 on April 21st, 1924. The location is probably an order number but we don't currently have enough information to identify it. The scans of these build records can be found below. These original Kennebec records are reproduced through the courtesy of the Maine State Museum.
The microfilms and scans of these records were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA). A description of the project to preserve other records like these 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 https://www.woodencanoe.org/about to learn more about the WCHA and https://www.woodencanoe.org/shop to donate or join.
It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
