Old Town 212629
- Thread starter Chuck Hoffhine
- Start date
The Old Town canoe with the serial number 212629 is a 16 foot long Otca model with a keel that was built in March, 1976. The original fiberglass exterior was clear to show the natural wood. It shipped on March 22nd, 1976 to Sunapee, New Hampshire. The back side of the card shows that the warranty card was returned from Newbury, New Hampshire on June 5th, 1976. Scans showing both sides of this build record can be found by following the links at the attached thumbnail images 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/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/about-the-wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://store.wcha.org/WCHA-New-Membership.html to renew.
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.
