Default Brunswick can't find my boat

Reading one of the posts below, I called Brunswick to get USCG ratings for my boat. After giving them my HIN, it doesn't match the pattern that they say existed for BlueFin back then. I can barely make out on my sticker that it is rated for 7 passengers, but I can't tell the Max HP rating. The only thing that Brunswick can find is for a 1989 model (mines a 1988) and it is rated for 5 passengers and 90hp. I even sent them a picture of a USCS placard from one of their earlier boats and they say that the HIN for that boat doesn't make sense either. They did indicate that documentation for these boats is scarce. I would have thought that they would have better records.
