MODERN MARINE CORP HIN FAQ
What does a MODERN MARINE CORP HIN look like?
It starts with the three characters "MOC" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to MODERN MARINE CORP — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. MODERN MARINE CORP hulls (1994–2004) all use the current HIN format: a month letter (A=January…L=December), a certification-year digit, then two model-year digits.
Is MODERN MARINE CORP still in business?
USCG records list MODERN MARINE CORP as out of business since 2004 (associated with ABBOTTS HARTS COVE MARINA). 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 MODERN MARINE CORP HIN?
On current-format HINs the last two characters are the model year and the 9th–10th encode the certification month and year. MODERN MARINE CORP hulls (1994–2004) 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.
