Welcome and congratulations, the Old Town canoe with serial number 216820 is a 15 foot long, Chipewyan model with aluminum inserts in the rails that weighed 64 pounds. It was built in March, 1977. The original exterior vinyl color was avocado. It shipped on June 2nd, 1977 to New Britain, Connecticut. The back side of the record indicates that it had some minor scuffs. Scans showing both sides of 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 renew.
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.
