I have come across many examples of C&C HIN that do not follow the “rules” so to say this means that, I can find an example of the opposite.
Some has to do with the USCG trying to standardize. Some has to do with where they were built. Some has to do with when the model was started. Some has to do with a shift of location of where the hull was built …. So just saying the HIN does not guarantee that it indicates where it was built JKC www.candcyachts.com Motion Designs Limited 647 990 7752 > On Jun 23, 2022, at 5:38 PM, CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List > <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > > > John, > Is what I was told long ago, that Niagra-On-The-Lake used "ZCC" in the HIN, > and Rhode Island used "CCY", is not true? > > Maybe there was an overlap and boats started at one facility were finished at > another, or boats built for a certain country were given the most appropriate > HIN to meet certain tax law advantages for the country of the particular > buyer??? > > > Chuck S, Resolute 1989 C&C 34R > >> On 06/23/2022 3:46 PM Dan via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: >> >> >> Thanks for the link to the Hull number lookup - exactly what I was looking >> for. >> >> I'm not near the boat right now but I do have the aluminum plaque in the >> cockpit that simply says "C&C"... not sure if "made in the usa" is below >> it... and inside the boat there IS a small wooden plaque over the v-berth >> door but I don't think it is a maker's plaque. >> >> I'm still not able to pinpoint or prove where exactly my C&C44 was made >> although the history is pointing to Rhode Island as the boat was >> manufactured in August 1985 for the 1986 line.
