Description

Possible Rushton canoe "Susan Nipper". NB: Documentation submitted by donor claims that this is the original "Susan Nipper" canoe built for George Washington Sears. This claim needs to be verified, as does the attribution of the boat to J.H. Rushton. Note by DJM 2/2009 - this is almost certainly not a product of the Rushton factory.
