Hull Identification Numbers

The Hull Identification Number (HIN) is a unique 12-digit number assigned by the manufacturer to boats built after 1972.

These numbers:

• Distinguish one boat from another—the same as serial numbers distinguish one car from another.
• Are engraved in the fiberglass or on a metal plate permanently attached to the transom.

You should write down your HIN and put it in a place separate from your boat in case warranty problems arise or your boat is stolen.
