Canoe Manufactuer question...
 

Hey all...

I just picked up an old wood/canvas canoe, and I am trying to figure
out who made it, and when...The only numbers that I can find on it are
17 5140. I thought that the 17 might be for 17 feet, but it measures
18 foot...Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Norm,

Try looking through the info at:
http://dragonflycanoe.com/id/
to pick a likely manufacturer


If it ends up resembling an Old Town canoe you can try to get more
information at the Wood Canoe Heritage Association forum he

Good Luck,
