Racine Wisconsin Canoe

[chris pearson]

Here is one for ya. Original with exception of paint color and brass caps. Interesting deck decal. Not Racine Wis but Racine Wisconsin Canoe, manuf by Racine Boat Company, Racine Wisconsin.
So, after the moved back from Muskegon, Michigan, post 1926? I’m guessing. Chippewa model? Are the Kennebec style gunwale caps on the ends original? Oar locks original? Floor board brass hardwood pieces original? Interesting original canoe! I’m all ears people!

Sorry, after reading up on Racine, I’m seeing that they moved back to Wisconsin from Muskegon early on and done by 1927. More research on this one to follow.
