Looking for Old Town boat resto. project.

[Woodpile]

While fishing the Moose River, Me. last spring was admiring a beautiful boat, owner said it was an Old town, 15-16' in length, fairly large bow deck, full transom, wood/canvas. I regret not getting more information from the owner.
Currently caught up on restoration projects and getting bored. I know this is not a lot of information, however, would appreciate any information on what model it may be and any leads in where to find one, thanks.

The Old Town version of this type of boat was known as the square stern model but similar boats were available from many different builders. See http://www.wcha.org/forums/index.php?threads/11798/ for some pictures and a build record. These can usually be found at http://www.wcha.org/classifieds?tid=9 and eBay.com but there aren't any currently listed. Bob Bassett has a Sebago version listed at http://boatbarn.wcha.org/for-sale.html now. Good luck,

Benson

Dont know if you are talking canoe or sport boat. Here is a 1951 14' OT Sport Boat. It is not for sale but I do have a 14' Shell Lake that I am willing to part with.

Thank you, Benson and Craig, it's the OT Sport boat. At least now I know what to look for, will place a "looking for" in the forum.
