FDR 189 What year is it?

[wyandotte824]

Hey everyone. Ive really enjoyed reading the threads on her. All kinds of very useful info. Anyways, I just purchased a 1968 14' v bottom alumacraft. I cant find the HIN anywhere. The only thing Ive found is imprinted in the center transom brace it reads"FDR 189". Did these boats come with a HIN and if so where should it be located. Thanks again.

On my '67 FD the HiN is on said transom brace,it was a bit hard to see as my eyes are getting bad and it was very faded.

The FDR was made in '59 and '60, I believe. 189 would be the 88th or 89th boat built. Neat boat...front steer, long deck.
