Just bought a Fountain w/ no hin

[Chezza]

Hi guys- we just bought a Fountain 25 centre console. It no longer has the HIN on the back and we are struggling to find a catalogue or brochure. We were told it is a 1999 but suspect maybe older. Can anyone offer any advice?

Moved this to a Topic of your own, Chezza

Been over a year since there was any activity in the other topic and CJ hasn't been on iboats in about as long.

Best of luck with the hunt for info

Looks like a nice boat, 1999 or not

no hin, no title,...... you didn't buy a boat, you made a donation.... I would also be VERY suspect as to WHY the hin is missing.... it was molded into the fiberglass.... it can't just fall off

I see that the registration is gone too........ SHADY ... be aware you may be in possession of a stolen boat

Notice any alternative spellings in Chezza's post Smoke? His IP isn't in the US.

No boat HIN or title = yard planter

Might just try emailing some pictures to Fountain themselves. They may even be able to dig you up a brochure.

Well now there ya go...... No, I hadn't noticed, since his english spelling and grammar is better than a LOT of americans lol....
I guess that MIGHT change things... I still lean toward the vin missing may be suspect but ya never know... there COULD be something in the world I don't know LOL

Chezza, where ARE you anyhow?

Lots of pictures of the interior of the boat that don't help a thing with the HIN issue.
Lets see some picture of the transom where the HIN should be, or at least used to be.
I don't know about Fountain, but some manufacturers place the HIN on the Starboard SIDE of the hull.
