Help Identifying an Old Town canoe?

Advice
#1

Hi Paddling.com Folks,

I’m wondering if anyone can help me identify an Old Town canoe. The serial number is XTC10601M76D (the D could be a zero, but it looks like a D). I’ve attached a photo the seller took.The bottom of the canoe is flat and it’s bigger than it looks in these photos.

Can anybody hep me with the year, model, and build materials for this boat?

Thanks!

Best,
Matt

If you want further information, you can call Old Town canoe.

The following is from the FAQs on their website:

“Call Old Town Canoe Co. at (207) 827-5514 or (800) 343-1555 and request to speak to Customer Service, or email customer service. Your serial number will be required, which is typically located at the stern end of the canoe. A research fee may be applied. (NOTE: We are unable to research histories for boats built from the mid-eighties through the present since detailed records are not available for newer boats.)”
