Mint condition original Penn Yan Rowboat. Can take up to 5 hp motor. Canvas cloth bottom, ribbed interior and plywood seats. Hull # XH506277. The Penn Yan company was founded in 1921 by Charles. A. Herman in New York State. Penn Yan started as a wooden boat company building all models of boats from canoes to fishing vessels. Legend has it that Herman's first boat was a wooden canoe built for himself. In 1950 Penn Yan introduced the Swift which was the most popular wooden racing boat ever produced. The company enjoyed a global reputation as a designer and crafter of artistic wooden boats for over 45 years, and the company is still revered highly by today's collectors. By 1955 Penn Yan had offered a line of 167 different models and in 1966 the last wooden boat was built with fiberglass to be the new building material.
