Starcraft kingfisher no HIN

[ifishmuskie]

I don't have a hin tag on the transom. I pulled the rub rail and I don't see any numbers behind there either.
Is there anywhere else I can look for the hin? Thanks for any help.

HIN? Hull Id Number?

Look on the starboard outside transom above the tow eye:

Sorry hin. I looked at the normal spot on the transom and there is no tag.

Mine is here, just under the starboard transom corner cap:

I basically had this boat completely taken apart, and there were no other id #s anywhere. Do you need it for registration? Most states have a workaround for this, in which they will just assign you a new HIN.

I want to put a bigger motor on it so I need hull numbers on the bow. But I can't get hull numbers because I have no way to identify the boat.

Are you looking for a tag riveted to the hull like a car's windshield VIN?

If present & original, it's likely just stamped into the aluminum of the transom. If the transom has been repainted, it is very likely to be hidden under paint:

That's the one I am looking for.

What year do you think it is? The older starcrafts use adhesive tags on the inside of the transom (which were foil and either fall away or become fully unreadable). Do you have 2 rivets about 2 to 2-1/2 inches apart..... maybe the tag was removed and the boat is actually stolen!!!

I think it's 1980 or earlier.

What size and type of starcraft is this?
