My ark is an Old town 15' s# 177440. I would be very appreciative if the WCHA could check into it, thanks!
 
Old Town #177440 was a 15-foot Trapper model with a keel. The canoe had fiberglass rather than canvas as a covering. It was built in 1967 and shipped to Grand Rapids, Mich.

I'm having a terrible time uploading the build record for this canoe. I'll try another method to copy it in this message. If it doesn't come through, perhaps someone else will have more luck.

The scan of this record is attached below-- click on it to get a larger image. This scan and several hundred thousand others 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/ot_records/ if you want more details. I hope that you and anyone else reading this will join or renew membership in the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://www.wcha.org/join.php to renew.

If you are selling your canoe and plan to use this build record information as part of an ad, please consider giving the WCHA credit for this information on eBay or craigslist or wherever your canoe is listed.

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