Need help identifying a Chestnut model

[canoista]

Hello!

Newbie here looking to get my first w/c canoe.
The following chestnut canoe is available and it is advertised as a 16' model from the 50's.
I have not yet looked at this canoe in person, but I don't think 16' canoes had only one thwart (unless it is missing a yoke)
I am attaching some pics. I know this may be limited info, but any good guess would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Looks like a Bob's special to me . Should be around 15 feet long and 36 inches wide if that is the case. I also noticed this listing yesterday. It's a bit too far of a drive for me. Good price. Go for it.

I own one and this is a great choice for your first W/C canoe.

Got it! Now that I had a chance to measure it I do think it is a Bob's. It is 15' long and 37" wide at the tumblehome (which seems to be an inch wider than the gunwales). Also the ribs are 1/4" thick and 2 and 3/8 wide, and its weight is manageable.
I took it out on a pond on Sat and ended up paddling it for almost 2 hours! Smooth paddling and no leaks.Very pleased with it.
Now I just need to figure out its age...
