1972 18' cuddycabin seacraft

I'm looking for the regi right now, anyway.. found the bill 0f sale says Vin # DK 699067 I assume those #'s to be correct. I will contiue to look for regi. I looked on the right rear transom where most vin's are but didn't see a #. Without tearing the shrinkwrap off, is there another place they would have put it? The boat looks just like the one on your sign in. Will post pic's soon.-dg

Vin # DK 699067

Doug,
After '72, the CG required mfg's to place the HIN on the transom. With your boat being a '72, you're in a gray area. My '72 Seabird has the mfg's serial # on a plate inside a storage locker. Take a look around, I would think there is a plate somewhere that lists weight limit, HP rating, etc. By the looks of the HIN you give, it might have been assigned by the state in which it was titled.

Thanks for the reply, Scott, as usual I gave out false info ( although not intentionally!) - found the regi, it's a 1970 & 20' !! - Who knew ?

That explains everything then. When you originally posted an 18' cuddy, I wondered if you really meant a 20' Seafari.

20' Seafari is the best boat SeaCraft ever built! Really Just ask Mr. Potter!!

Hallellujah, that's the truth!

The reson I bought mine for a future project was because it's the model Bill Potter chose to renovate for his personal boat (with a Hermco bracket and a 175 Ficht).

It's all a part of the Four Boat Theory...
