7) Description 1917 BN Morris Canoe Serial #15533 Model A, Type 3, My grandfather purchased this 1917 BN Morris canoe in 1934 for our mother where she enjoyed paddling it on Lake Winnipesaukee NH for decades. It's truly a family treasure. My sister inherited the canoe and had it fully restored by Rollin Thurlow, Northwoods Canoe in Atkinson ME in 2019. Rollin's attention to detail and strict adherence to the original build and materials is second to none. The full 16 page step by step restoration document is available only to serious buyers.
The canoe has not seen the water since the restoration. It is near pristine condition with only 2 minor flaws that I suspect occurred during transportation to storage.
