Welcome to Iboats.

If it's newer than say '74, there should be a HIN tag riveted to the stern of the boat.
The last two numbers of the HIN is the model year.

Take some pictures and post them up. One of the tin guys may be able to help you identify it if they can see it.

Re: sears boat

Pre 1973 sears boats only had serial numbers and only the manufacturer could interpret them. Sears made no boats at all. The Sears company re-badged every boat they sold.

Consult with DMV that it is a pre 1973 and built prior to hull identification numbers and offer them the serial number.
