Yes, the Old Town canoe with serial number 180931 is a 16 foot long FG (fiberglass) model. It was built in June, 1968. The original exterior gelcoat colors were white on the deck with a red hull. It shipped on June 21st, 1968 to Lake Mohawk, New Jersey with a weight of 85 pounds. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the thumbnail image attached below.

This scan and several hundred thousand others 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 don't match the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
