Looking for info on my Old Town Canoe. Yellow, 17 Ft. Serial # 204951 stamped on the front right side. Also has this # on a black tag on left front XT004951MT50. I bought it in the mid 70's. Need to refresh my memory as to type?
 
Welcome and congratulations, the Old Town canoe with serial number 204951 is a 17 foot long Chipewyan Tripper model that weighed 75 pounds. It was built in November, 1974. The original exterior color was yellow. It shipped on December 18th, 1974 to Dedham, Massachusetts. The back side of the card indicates that there were some scuffs on the bottom of the hull. Scans showing 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. 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.
