Hi there I'm trying to determine the age of a recent charter boat from sunsail. I have a picture of the only ID plate I could find on the boat and it has the serial number 137587. I'm guessing this will be enough to determine the age of the boat? I have searched the Internet but unable to find any answers. Any help greatly received. Thanks Saul.
 
The HIN number should be moulded into the starboard quarter of the hull, near the deck level. IIRC it should be a 12 or 14 digit code, of which the last four give the age. Last two digits are the model year, the preceding two the month and year of actual manufacture.
eg F497 would be a 97 model Sun Odyssey 37 or 43 or whatever, moulded and finished in June 2004.
The earlier digits give the country of manufacture, the name of the manufacturer, model of yacht,( and then the date as said above.)
