Stus-List Strange HIN, can anyone clarify
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.?

CC in that era often made the hull in one year and completed the boat the next. This is not the only CC that is a 74 model but hull was 73. Dry Red CC 25 #148 was same thing From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Rick Brass via CnC-List Sent: Friday, May 30, 2014 10:38 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Strange HIN, can anyone clarify A friend is looking at a 1974 30-1 in Beaufort, NC.

Re: Stus-List Strange HIN, can anyone clarify
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, CC 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.

Re: Stus-List Strange HIN, can anyone clarify
That may be a state issued HIN. Touché has a state issued HIN because the 1971 HIN format didn't match the USCG standard. The state HIN number does not have CCZ or CCY. It has some random code but matches the USCG format. I'm thinking the 300116 is correct and the CC code is just omitted. Dennis C.
