Old Town 169864

The Old Town canoe with serial number 169864 is an 18 foot long Guide model with a keel. It was built between February and July, 1960. The original exterior paint color was G. S. (Guide's Special) Green. It was shipped on July 26th, 1960 to Sparta, New Jersey. The back side of this record indicates that the canoe may have moved to Englewood, New Jersey by October of 1977 when a previous letter requested a copy of this information. Scans showing both sides of this build record can be found below.

These scans and several hundred thousand more were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others as you probably know well. 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 donate, 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 https://www.woodencanoe.org/pricing-plans/join to donate or renew.

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