There are several about that size that are permanent fixtures in the old house we have in W. Dennis. Don't know when or where my grandfather acquired them and I can't recall if there are any markings that would identify that, I can check when I'm up for most of August. They had to be for my father so that would date them back to at least the late 30's. My brother and I worked many years as summer sanitation engineers around Dennis and he picked some hulls and parts that we still have we just never got around to doing anything with them. Unfortunately none of us ever got to go to camp, just being allowed the entire summer to roam near and far on no speed bikes and plywood rowboats was camp enough.
Justplug it, I could not agree more about your statement about grandfathers, but it was just about the opposite for me. I didn't appreciate all that he did for me when I was young I actually treated him meanly though he never let on it hurt him, but after about 12 I could not wait for trips up from L.I. to get time with him. He was my original fishing mentor.
