Hello Tim,
121171 is a 16' HW in CS grade qith open spruce gunwales and oak seats, decks and thwarts. It also had sponsons, a keel and outside stems. It had a custom paint job in design #37 with the initials WVW on the right bow. It was shipped to New Haven, CT in May of 1937. A copy of the build record and a picture of design 37 is attached.
Scans of approximately 210,000 records were 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.
