Hull Number Decoding

[ScottM]

EggSuckinDog,
scothawk55 is correct, it's the 6th boat of that model line built that year.

stoney,
No idea what the foil stamp is. Your HIN should be on the upper righthand corner of your transom.

WWP2,
Yes, you have a '78 23' Superfisherman. The model designation doesn't delineate between OB or I/O. You're missing 1 digit in the HIN, it should be 12 characters long.
SEC - SeaCraft
F3 - 23' Superfisherman (CC)
06X - hull # (you're missing a number)
04 - April
78 - 1978

Stoney, prior to '73 hull transoms were not stamped with HIN's. The foil plate is all you have. -PF

Mine says 1969 on the title and has a 3 digit number, 936. Any idea what this means?

Back in the 60's the boats were just numbered sequentially. I think the first numbers started at 100 for the original 21 foot SeaCrafts. I think the 19' bowriders then started at either 300 or 400. There was also a 15 foot runabout, and then the 20 foot Center Consoles came out and had the higher numbers. It was a very simple numbering scheme and they would jump a hundred or so when a new model came out. I can try to find out more info if you'd like.

Here is a pic of the plate

My boat is a 1973 SF,I have not been able to find the metal plate but my title identfication number is F3002.Any info on this? Keith

In Fl. anything built after 1972 is required to have a HIN. In your case in Fl. they would issue you an FLZ number. Maybe thats a number assigned by your state?
