Curious about Wooden Canoes
Please post build information for this canoe. Serial number is hard to read, but this is my best guess. THANKS
I did not know the HW came with the low ends option. Did that happen a lot?
Do you have the correct color for OT "aluminum"?
I don't but the "gray paint on the bottom of the gunwales" would probably be a good place to start. My usual advice in cases like this is to just pick a shade that you like. Good luck,
Benson
Grumman apparently began manufacturing aluminum canoes in 1944 – perhaps this was the impetus for this canoe’s paint job.
