      Help me identify my canoe!

I suspect I will be able to get some good help from the good folks in the paddling community.

I bought a used canoe recently, and am looking to identify it. I believe it may be a Dagger Reflection 16. I know it was made in 1995.

The serial number is: DAO18739H595



Follow Up Question: Once I know its make and model, I hope to buy new decals. Any leads on that would also be greatly appreciated!

Thank you all!

If I understand the HIN correctly, the first three are the manufacturer, a lookup of DAO comes up with: DAO - DENNIS ALL OUT PERFORMANCE CORP Largo FL

The next five (18739) are the SN, followed by (H) August, 199(5) Build date and model year 19(95)

I don't think your model number is in there unless its part of the SN, and this all lines up with standard US Coastguard nomenclature for hull identification numbers.

I believe that is DAQ, not stamped well. That would be a Dagger. It is definitely a Dagger color from their R 84, royalite material. A photo would help.
