This is a quote from the Boatsafe site: "the last four characters indicate the month and year the boat was built, and the model year. Prior to August 1, 1984, the manufacturer had the option of expressing this in the form of a model year designation. " I am not sure what is being said here.

As I recall from prior posts on the list, and from reading the explanation of HINs on the USCG website, there are at least three different schemes for hull ID numbers that have been used over the years. I believe that the explanation that Chuck included below is for the current scheme. On my o

My $.02, This sailing stuff is just a hobby. It's up to the owner to detect and deal with whatever design or maintenance shortcomings manifest themselves. If something seems awry, it's up to the owner to decide whether to DIY or hire out the fix. If it's the latter, then ask around. DIY = fewer pr

I think the K means the hull was molded in November. Found the HIN explained on the web: The first 3 characters are what are referred to as the MIC or Manufacturers Index Code. There are several sites on the internet that can help you decode the MIC of your HIN. One such site is through the

I had a chance to take a closer look at my oil leak the other day. It appears to be coming from the drain attachment to the oil pan. I think it is between the oil pan and the drain, not the drain tube attachment. However, I can’t see what the fitting looks like or how the whole thing is attach

Jim, This sounds like a good plan. I think I might try this. I also like the idea of taping some plastic sheet under the filter - I may even try taping a ziplock bag under the filter in such a way that I can drop the used filter straight in the bag. As always, thanks to all who provided input
