It's a 14' Old Town wood and canvas dinghy that Brian believes dates from 1924 or 1925. It was originally sold to The Oaks amusement park by the Selwood Bridge in Portland for use as a livery boat, and has some rare factory options. The boat has some rot in the transom and possibly in the stem. The canvas is in good shape, but any repair would probably involve replacing it. Brian is offering the Coots first dibs. Make him a good offer. (see attachments) -- John (jkohnen@...) Men with the muckrake are often indispensable to the well-being of society.
