Old Town 80364 18

The Old Town canoe with serial number 80364 is an 18 foot long, GS grade, Guide's Special model with Western red cedar planking, open spruce gunwales, birch decks, birch trim, and a keel. It was built between September and December, 1923. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It shipped on May 14th, 1925 to Berlin, New Hampshire. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link behind the attached thumbnail image below.

This scan was created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. Additional information about 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 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.html to renew.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description don't match your canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
