Hin number locations?-gctid389381

[Guest]

I just bought a 88 capri. The HIN # on the title doesn't match the # on the transom. Does anyone know the second number location?

Typically inside the engine compartment far aft.

On the backside of the transom?

Yep

F. The HIN must be marked on the upper starboard transom or the upper starboard topsides, aft, if the vessel has no transom.

G. The HIN must be marked in a fashion such that tampering will deface the hull.

H. Date of manufacture must be no later than the date the vessel leaves the place of manufacture or assembly or is imported into the US for the purposes of sale.

I. As of August 1, 1984 manufacturers were required to mark an identical copy of the visible HIN in a hidden location in the vessel.

If I'm down in the engine compartment, its on the inside of the (stock) swim platform facing forward. Very visible and clear (with a flash light).
