Want to know how old that boat is that you are looking at? There are errors in boat advertisements all the time. Although it is often an innocent mistake, it can effect the value of the used boat you are purchasing. In this video we will cover:
Intro 0:00
Verifying the HIN (Hull Identification Number) 0:45
First 3 digits - Manufacturer 1:35
Next 5 digits - boat unique serial number 1:56
Next 2 digits - year and month of manufacturer 2:25
Last 2 digits - model year of the boat 2:56
What to watch for in a HIN and why you need it 3:30

I didn't realise the HIN followed a structured format like that, I assumed it would differ by manufacturer rather than following a pattern. So that was very useful, thanks. Every day is a school day! :)

Thanks and very informative! May I ask an unrelated question? I am from Ontario too and I've been seeing a lot of used boat from the 80s and 90s selling for very cheap but as soon as it gets more recent, like 2010 and up the price is through the roof. Is there anything that makes those older boats particularly unwanted? I am trying to justifying spending $30000 on a 2015 vs $3000 on a 1989 :) assuming both are functioning correctly. Thanks a lot!

the last two numbers on mine are 22 and third from back is 1. It looks like ...J122. Does that mean the boat was manufactured in 2011 or 2021? Thanks
