Hull ID examples

Post by LancerBoy »

Here are some hull ID stamp, as examples. The hull ID stamp is INSIDE the boat on the starboard side. Sometimes stamped upside down. Sometimes above the splash well and sometimes below. Can be covered up by some component added to the transon, such as the OMC solenoid box.
