1920 Old Town HW 16' Closed Gunwale

This 16' Old Town HW model was built between January and March of 1920, and was originally shipped to Boston. It is a CS grade canoe, having spruce rails and birch decks, seats and thwarts.

Like so many canoes, it needs to have the tips of the rails and stems rebuilt. I count 3 broken ribs (the ones with the metal repairs in the photos. It is possible there may be some more cracks hidden by the old varnish, but I did not see any. Some of the planking has been replaced with mahogany. The finish rails, rail caps and keel are gone and new ones will need to be fabricated.
