Question

I have my serial number but I dont know the manufacture of the boat so I cant get my new 08 stickers?

Answer 1

Look on the transom from behind the stern, and you will see a plate that has the serial number, model and manufacturer on it.

Don't you have a title? What did you use last year?

Hi Chuck!

Here's a website that'll allow you to search for your vessel's manufacturer:

Just plug in the first three letters of your hull identification number into the MIC search line and you're in business!

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

The hull ID number, that's been required since 1972 begins with three letters, Like BLB- then other numbers for model and ending in the month and year.   The actual hull # is right after the model , in most cases.  Most Boat dealers could tell you which manufacturer built your boat.  P.S. the Coast Guard assigns the Builder three letter code.  I would think the local DNR would be able to figure out the MFG by looking at the number you have.
