Where to find Hull ID

Erik Svenson
 

May be a basic question, but where do I find the HIN on my Flicka?

 

Thanks, Erik

On ours it is on the bottom edge of the transom near the rudder on the port side. Supposed to be stbd side upper edge, but being that as it may, ours is port lower edge. Should be PCS20 plus 3 digit serial number and 4 character date code.

Look on the transom at waterline on left side of rudder. It is ground into the fiberglass. Near where the keel meets the transom.

My Hull ID is low on the right side of the transom, hard to see when in the water.

'Just a small comment, Julie, the number is "on the right side of the transom"?--Now, let's see if I face the transom that would make it on the port side of the boat, but if I'm sitting in the boat at the stern it would be on the starboard side. Hmmm
now I know why starboard and port are used instead of right and left.  Damn land lubbers just getting us all confused!  (don't take this too seriously I'm just poking fun at a common error that we all make)

There is a federal law since 1972 that requires the HIN and specifies the location.  The format of the information in the HIN changed in 1984. That is why you can determine when the Flicka's hull was popped on "newer" boats.
