About your sailboat

If the links at the top right do not provide the information you need, call us . If we can't answer your question, we'll try to point you in a right direction.

You found/bought/inherited a small sailboat,

and don't know what kind it is.

Identification

Is there anything on the sail, sail insignia, sail insignias.

Email [email protected] to request it. Thanks!

Is there a serial number on the boat?

If the boat was manufactured after 1972, it should, by law, have a twelve digit Hull Identification Number (HIN) engraved/embedded on the transom (the back/rear-end of the boat). The first three letters identify the manufacturer. Visit the U.S. Coast Guard's Boating Safety Resource Center , look under "Recalls and Safety Defects," then choose "Manufacturers Identification." Enter what info you know into their searchable database, or browse.

The last two digits are usually the year the boat was built.

If there is no HIN number

Look for a plate or sticker on the boat which might indicate a builder's name, state, or anything about the boat.

There may be a state licensing number on the bow: in Michigan, this number starts with MC and is usually displayed in stick-on letters on both sides of the bow (front) of the boat. If the boat is/was licensed, there was a registration (like a car registration) issued to the owner. That registration paper may hold some info about the boat.

ride the other night around one of the areas out at Shelter Island. Plenty of beautiful Sailboats. Noticed that many of the Sailboat’s had a distinguishing racing/pin stripe. Some of them had letters built into them, some of them had distinct logos. But many did not have specific makes on them like , , Hallberg-Rassy, , , . Does anyone know of a website or a book that might identify some of these sailboats by their markings. Not a HIN Number website. Logos?

A strange looking craft indeed, I can't imagine it would perform too well other than as a motor sailor?

Paul, On a different topic: thanks for your input to Gavin at 'In the Boatshed' pointing to a YouTube video showing Smack Racing at West Mersea this year - a super clip that captures the action. Here is the actual YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3bkqQFqP-Q#t=173 Cheers, Bill.
