The Old Town canoe with the serial number 173317 is a 16 foot long Guide model with a keel that was built between September and November, 1963. The original exterior paint color was G. S. (Guide's Special) green. It shipped on July 20th, 1964 to Madison, Wisconsin. It may have moved to Tucson, Arizona by March, 1985 when there was a previous request for a copy of this build record. 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 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.
