Can anyone tell me the year of this boat based on the following HIN? STRE3046-1078-f9
The seller says it is 1980, but wonder if it is a 1978. Also, can you determine the model from it?
Everything I read says this is a 12 digit #, but this is not.

HINs never have anything in the first 12 characters except letters and numbers. The "-f9" meant something to Starcraft in 1978.


Success! STRE30461078 is of the standard HIN type called Straight-Year HIN. If you are buying this boat/craft then you should get the Boat-Alert History for 19.99$ from this certified boat history report provider.


STR HIN Decoder​

Our HULL ID Decoder breaks down the Hull identification number into the following information:

The HIN or CIN you have entered meets the Straight-Year HIN format. It might also be a type that contains the country code and thus the boat comes from USA or Other . The serial number of the HIN is E3046 and is set by the boat builder. This boat or vessel has a Certification Date of (1978) and a Model Year of 1978 with month of build (October) based on the formatting of your hull_identification_number (HIN) .

The manufacturer identification code (MIC) of your craft identification number (CIN or HIN) is STR. This MIC (STR) stands for the company name Starcraft which is currently In Business. This boat manufacturer has other company names (STR sometimes goes by these name(s) Monark, Spectrum, Fisher, or Northwood).​
