PNM BOAT MFG CO HIN FAQ

What does a PNM BOAT MFG CO HIN look like?

It starts with the three characters "IEH" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to PNM BOAT MFG CO — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. PNM BOAT MFG CO hulls (2006–2008) all use the current HIN format: a month letter (A=January…L=December), a certification-year digit, then two model-year digits.

Is PNM BOAT MFG CO still in business?

USCG records list PNM BOAT MFG CO as out of business since 2008. 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 PNM BOAT MFG CO HIN?

On current-format HINs the last two characters are the model year and the 9th–10th encode the certification month and year. PNM BOAT MFG CO hulls (2006–2008) all use the current HIN format: a month letter (A=January…L=December), a certification-year digit, then two model-year digits. Enter the full 12-character HIN above and the decoder works it out, including the legacy formats.

Where is the HIN on a PNM BOAT MFG CO boat?

On the outside upper-starboard (right) corner of the transom, within two inches of the top — required by 33 CFR 181.29. Since August 1984 an identical duplicate HIN is also molded into an unexposed interior location as an anti-theft measure. Both should match the title, registration, and insurance card exactly.

Is the "IEH" MIC the same as a PNM BOAT MFG CO serial number?

No. "IEH" is the Manufacturer Identification Code — characters 1–3 of the HIN — that identifies PNM BOAT MFG CO. The hull serial number is characters 4–8: PNM BOAT MFG CO's own production number for that specific boat (the letters I, O, and Q are never used). The full 12-character HIN combines the MIC, the serial, and the date code.

Can a PNM BOAT MFG CO HIN tell me the exact model?

Not on its own. A HIN encodes the builder, hull serial, certification month/year, and model year — not the model name or length. Match the decoded year and serial against PNM BOAT MFG CO records, the title, or a marine survey to confirm the exact model and configuration.
