The paint is already in rough shape over the HIN so I'd strip it off to confirm. I'm willing to bet that D is really a C once the paint is gone. If that's the case, you'll probably need to take a pencil etching of the HIN to your DMV to have the title corrected. It may also require a visual inspection by them to verify.

Since the D makes no sense and a C does I think the mystery is solved

I guess when I go paint the hull next year I will worry about it then right now I just cant wait till Sunday and get out on the water with her.

Thinking about painting it when I do this color its called Dessert Sage metallic. Anyone ever seen a boat with this color ?





....I got another question since this Merc was converted to pre mix. What type of oil do I or should I use for this ?

It is a 82 20 sf. It has a evirilude 150.
I bought it about a month ago I havnt had it out yet as the motor is being rebuilt so I've just been. Cleaning it up. First the teak then I redid the canvas a teal and did the upholstery Im making. Coaming pads for the side but can't finnins them in till I get the embroidery back. I putting seacraft On Them I had to rescrew the rubrail. Also.

I like the sound of the sc logo on the pads. I am going to get a cushion made for the front deck. As well as redo the current ones might add that idea

Not sure on the color but hey its your boat. On the oil any 2stroke oil is fine.

no, it's not.
Stick with name-brand oil. I strictly use Quicksilver (Mercury), Yamalube, Penzoil< or Bombardier branded 2-stroke oils in any 2-stroke motor. I'd add Amsoil to the list, but they don't market in Florida. (As of 2007, Quicksilver was mostly made by Conoco/Phillips or Ashland Oil to Merc specs. Yamalube made by Chevron/Texaco to Yamaha specs, and Bombardier made by Penzoil West, Amsoil or Gulf Oil)
Of the actual oil manufacturers, only Penzoil and Amsoil make their own brand exceed the quality of what they make for anyone else.

If you say so. But Ive never had a problem with using any 2 stroke oil. Now if I have a choice Ill use name brand but I dont go out of my way for it.
