I believe this to be an Old Town ...although there are no Old Town Badges on it...Serial # 170363..16 foot. Any info would be greatly appreciated !!
 
Hello. Old Town 170363 is a 16 foot Otca model canoe that was completed August-September 1960. It was fitted with a keel and painted light blue. It was shipped to NorthAmpton, MA, on October 21, 1960.

A scan of this record is attached below.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions. Image of the scan of this record is attached below-- click on it to get a larger image.

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 athttp://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.


More information on the Old Town Company can be found in Sue Audette's book, Old Town, Our First Hundred Years, which is available through the WCHA store and most booksellers, eBay, Amazon, and public libraries.
