Posts: 15 | exactly where on the stern? where is the serial # on pre 1970 boats? my boat may be a very early model, as it sat untouched in a friends yard, for what he says was over 35 years that hes lived there, and was there when he bought the house. thanks jason p.s. the only etched or numbers whatsoever on the boat aside from the corner casting position markers, is the # 4923 found on the outer side of the foreward pylons , etched in, i just spent about 15 min searching for a number on the stern, nothing that i could find

I don't if it follows the newer boat convention. On newer boats, the idntifying number is on the transom, right side (I think), and is something like CCM0000X000, where the CCM is Coast Cat Manufacturing, the four zeros are the serial number, the X is a letter that denotes the type of boat (H16, 18, etc.) and the last three zeros denote the year of manufacture and model year. The last two are the model year and the first one is the year of manufacture.

Posts: 15 | im no expert but ive spent literally 100's of hours checking over every detail of this boat, checking fiberglass for delam, alum for stress signs, etc etc. and aside from one seam delam on left foreward hull at the deck/hull seam, fiberglass is in great condition, anyway, where i sail, if you sink, you can pretty much in every spot of the bay, stand up and walk back to the beach, lol. i live in an area thats just pure shallow bay peace jason
p.s. boats already rigged, just refinishing the hull and frame, so can someone answer me and tell me how old my boat is? or how to find out? thanks jason | | | Re: paint options and age id.
