Old Town s/n

Welcome, the Old Town canoe with hull identification number XTC17437M79B and serial number 217437 is an 18 foot long guide model with a keel and a fiberglass covering. It was built between April and August, 1977. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It shipped on September 26th, 1978 to Doylestown, Pennsylvania. The back side of the record indicates that some scratches required a bit of extra work. 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 join.

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