old town

Hi, I am looking for the 2002 Old Town catalog (PDF or pictures). I am searching for dimensions and fabric information. Thanks

I recently inherited the family canoe- Old Town 113880- and would love to know any information about her.

I'm looking for build information for an 18 ft. Old Town sailing canoe with a serial number of 175109. A little help...many thanks!

Hi. I recently acquired (for free) a blue, 16' 1" OT Penobscot with HIN #XTC96417H788. It's been under a bridge next to a stream for many years and the thwarts, yoke and and cane seats were rotten (all the wood was recently removed), but the vinyl gunwales and plastic decks are fine. The hull...

I'm sorry, I bet this is somewhere in the forums, but I did look first! I'm replacing the outwalls (gunnels) of an Old Town Trapper 17, 1962 wood with factory fiberglass skin. I'd like to know what wood was used so I can keep this as close to original as possible. Many thanks.

Hi, all. I just discovered this forum and am looking forward to reading a lot of the older posts, as well. My grandfather loved wooden boats. When I was a kid, we had 5 of them: two Adirondack lapstrake rowboats, a 1924 Old Town wood/canvas canoe with mahogany trim, a Barnegat Bay sneak box...

Good morning, I recently picked up a 16' Old Town Square Stern Model. I am looking to paint and varnish the canoe myself and I am looking to have some pieces (a deck, seats) made by a builder/restorer that I found on the WCHA commercial directory. My 1st question is... where would you start...

Got bored with the snow & cold so I refinished this rowing seat & foot brace. It came with a 1906 OT HW project I picked up a few months ago. The seat straddles the rails which measure 12 7/8" wide & 48" long. The seat itself measures 15 1/2" wide & 14 5/8" deep and can be placed anywhere...

I've recently acquired a canoe without a builder's plate. It's 16' with a heart-shaped deck and a carry thwart in the bow, making me think it's a Carleton. Bow and stern are very curved like the Old Town Otca model. Serial # is 11000. Any info/documents/history about this canoe would be most...

Hey, just found the forum and I'm excited to see there is so much history available on these boats! My family has an old OT double-ender, probably from the 30's give or take. I know they'd love to hear where it cam from and when. Where do you find the serial number on these boats? Thanks!

Just finished another one done: a 1925 17' Carleton. I picked it up in Pennsylvania this January when we had a forecast of good weather for a day or so (thanks for the heads-up Mike C.). The canoe originally had sponsons and had been fiberglassed (with up to 4 fabric layers in some places!)...

Thanks to a relatively warm winter I was able to complete the 18' 1937 Otca "AA" Grade I picked up last October. It had a ton of white paint slathered on it. Most of the paint came off, though I found it impossible to get the stuff out of scratches without losing a lot of wood! On the bright...

Old Town S/N: 14739 This canoe has been in the family since the 20's. My grandfather bought it second hand when it was a few years old. I am looking to see what the value might be. I need to decide if I want to sell it or keep it and restore it. Any information would be greatly appreciated...

...rescued from basket-case-dom. Came out kinda nice. After 17+ canoes I'm starting to get the hang of this restoration thing!

I'm the second generation owner of a beautiful green Old Town, Serial Number 8175554 17 recently restored by Dave Osborn at Little Lakes Canoe Restoration in Boulder Junction, Wisconsin. I'd like to track down more information about it. Thanks.

Hi, Looking for info on a 25 ft war canoe appears to be an old town. Serial was hard to read and appears to be 104847 Would be appreciative of any info you might have for this. Thanks

Hello WCHA! We just had our 18' OT Guide Canoe restored and are looking for the year created and any other history of Serial #133292 Here is an image of the restoration by McFarland Lake Canoes in Olympia, WA. Thanks for your help! Hannah Letincih hletinich@yahoo.com West Seattle, Washington

Just purchased an Old Town 18 ft canoe. Would love to know who restored it and any other information available. When was it made? Whoever restored it did beautiful work. It is a piece of art.

Need photo of the joinery at the stem tip where inwales meet on circa 1963 18' Guide. They are completely gone on the canoe I am restoring so no reference. Is it similar to chestnuts with stem post having notch. just butt up under inwales or something else? Would like it brought back to proper...
