Old Town Bellingham
Curious about Wooden Canoes
Can you please provide me build details on Old Town canoe Serial No. 174159. I believe it to be a 1960s era OTCA.
Many thanks.

- Start date
The Old Town canoe with serial number 174159 is a 17 foot long Otca model with narrow two and 3/4 inch planking and a keel. It was built between July and October, 1964. The original exterior paint color was Old Town Yellow and it was shipped on March 11th, 1965 to Spokane, Washington. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the attached thumbnail image below.
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 will join or renew your membership to 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 join.
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.
