Is this a real canvas canoe frame or just a display?

Hello,

First time poster here. :)

Just wanted to know if you all believe this to be a legit canvas canoe frame?  I ask just because it looks different from all other canvas canoe frames I've seen online.  Strength wise that is?

Hello Bluestraw.  I can not answer your question.  I had a look at the link and notice it sold for about $100.  Did you buy it?   The only thing I can think to tell you is try the wooden boat forum.  They might be able to point you in the right direction.

I found a vintage Old Town canoe a few years back.  My brother-in-law contacted Old Town and they traced the serial number back to the original dealer, who it was made for, etc..  They keep excellent records on every boat they have made.  There should be a number on it that can be checked.

 

PS: It looks legit to me.
