[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 415763, member: 15636"] It is the last 2 or 2nd to the last 2 "if" there was a mid-year model change of the HIN ([u]H[/u]ull [u]I[/u]dentification [u]N[/u]umber) that denotes the year of manufacturer. [i]It might be [/i]that some Mfg'rs used the last 2 -digits of their model# to denote the build year, but I have no idea of that and never heard of it. But in this post, someone else [i]believes [/i]it to be true: https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/21549-antique-tin-club/ This is the link to the USCG database for HINs and boat makers - https://www.uscgboating.org/content/manufacturers-identification.php , but nothing came up for Memphis Belle or the Guy Barnette Company, which used to make 'coach cars', see: https://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/b/barnette/barnette.htm Also see: https://forum.tinboats.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=30447 Cool boat regardless!
