- Start date
Welcome and congratulations, the Old Town canoe with serial number 179710 is an 18 foot long guide model with a keel. It was built between December, 1967 and February, 1968. The original exterior paint color was G. S. (Guide's Special) green. It shipped on April 17th, 1968 to San Francisco, California. A scan of this build record is shown below.
This scan and several hundred thousand more 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/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 join.
It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer this description doesn't match the canoe. Canoes with a family connection are always extra special. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
