Trying to find Brochure or manufacturer info on my boat.

[ronn07]

Based on my Hull ID my boat is a

1990 Randall Craft V-180 Islander​

But I can not find anything about the boat anywhere other than a short paragraph on
this iBoats Website.

HIN: ESN18165G990

It's a center console, however the paragraph calls it a runabout.

Any help on finding info about it would be greatly appreciated.

Often boats made for ocean/ saltwater use are not known inland around freshwater areas. Many popular boats from inland areas have never been heard of along ocean coastal areas...I am wondering if your boat might be more popular along coastal areas....just a thought..

your boat is an islander based on the picture

They are made off-shore in fiji https://www.fibreglass.com.fj/islander-boats

If I had to guess, looks to be early 2000's Islander 17

Randal craft made small bass style boats. https://boatbrochure.com/products/randall-craft-brochure https://app.louisianasportsman.com/...sifieds&event=view&action=single_ad&id=471280

My guess is you have a boat without a title and a title without a boat because the two do not go together. However I could be wrong.

Is the HIN you posted from the title or from the hull? If its in the hull and the title, you can look the HIN up.

The HIN is from both the title and the Hull of the boat. Attached is a pic of the HIN from the stern of the boat.

So I emailed that company and they say this boat is not theirs.

the ESN points to a sailboat company out of Fort Worth, that also produced boats under the Randall Craft Name.
