BEAVER CREEK RECRE CO HIN FAQ
What does a BEAVER CREEK RECRE CO HIN look like?

Is BEAVER CREEK RECRE CO still in business?
USCG records list BEAVER CREEK RECRE CO as out of business since 1984. That's common for older hulls — the HIN still decodes normally, and the out-of-business date helps date the boat and guides parts-hunting toward salvage and owner groups rather than a dealer network.
How do I decode the year on a BEAVER CREEK RECRE CO HIN?
