The Old Town canoe with the hull identification number XTC15205M78E and serial number 215205 is a 15 foot long Trapper model with a keel that was built between December, 1976 and January, 1977. The original fiberglass exterior was clear to show the natural wood. It shipped on January 12th, 1978 to Raymond, New Hampshire. The back side of the card shows that the warranty card was returned from Manchester, New Hampshire on August 29th, 1978. 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. 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 join.

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.
