All boats manufactured after 1972 have the HIN on the upper starboard of
the transom. Accept no substitutes! If the HIN is not there, I would
slow down and investigate before going any further. As far as I know,
C&C always had the HIN located in other spots as "backup". Mine has it
embossed on the interior liner on the surface that is exposed when I
lift up the seat of the port settee. For all I know there are others I
have not stumbled upon. Maybe the surveyor mixed up some of his notes
when he got back to the office to write his final reports. I'm not sure
I would rely on a seller supplied survey, either. I think I may be
hearing the faint sound of a warning bell or two, here. The buyer will
need a new survey with correct numbers to get insurance and/or financing
anyway.

A friend is looking at a 1974 30-1 in Beaufort, NC. The seller gave us
a copy of a recent survey of the boat.
On the survey the hull number is listed as "300116" which is probably
taken from the metal plate in the cockpit. Model 30. Hull #116. Makes
sense.
But the HIN shown for the boat is MDZ45139G473, which seems all wrong.
For one thing, the date would make this a 73 model not a 74. And MDZ
is the manufacturer code for a home made boat built in Maryland.
Can anyone help me clarify what appears to be an error or typo in the
survey? Does anyone her have a HIN like this.?
