1965 Old Town 16' OTCA restored


Recommended Posts

Just finished restoring this 1965 Old Town OTCA 16' AA wood canvas canoe. All original wood, no replacement ribs or plank. AA means it's the top of the line in this model, mahogany gunnels, oak inwales with oak seats, new #10 canvas with 4 coats of Interlux Brightside Sea green paint. Interior received Interlux 90 varnish. Hull is smooth and like new. 

I use wood canvas canoes every year when I hunt the first week of NZ at Lows Lake in the ADK's. They are much tougher than folks think and after years of hard use they can be brought back to like new condition with easy to learn skills. 

Canoe is locted in nw Connecticut, about an hour and 15 mins from Albany, NY  (Norfolk, Connecticut, 06058)

$1900

She sure is purty! What does she weigh and how much can she carry? :rolleyes:

 Weight is about 65lbs, maybe less. The paint is too fresh to put it in a sling under my deer scale. As far as gear goes, it will haul 2 adults with a weeks camping gear...unless they bring the kitchen sink.:taunt:
