INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC HIN FAQ
What does a INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC HIN look like?
It starts with the three characters "INH" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC hulls (2003–2013) all use the current HIN format: a month letter (A=January…L=December), a certification-year digit, then two model-year digits.
Is INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC still in business?
USCG records list INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC as out of business since 2013 (associated with MINGO INDUSTRIES, INC.). 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 INDIGO MANUFACTURING INC HIN?
