How a SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY HIN breaks down
A current-format (1984–present) Hull Identification Number is 12 characters. Using the example SYY45678D424 (illustrative):
| Characters | Segment | In example | What it identifies |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | Manufacturer (MIC) | SYY | Identifies SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY, assigned by the US Coast Guard. |
| 4–8 | Hull serial number | 45678 | SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY's own production number for the specific hull (the letters I, O, Q are never used). |
| 9 | Certification month | D | Month built — A=January … L=December (D = April). |
| 10 | Certification year | 4 | Last digit of the certification year. |
| 11–12 | Model year | 24 | The boat’s model year. |

SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY HIN FAQ
What does a SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY HIN look like?
It starts with the three characters "SYY" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY hulls (2013–present) all use the current HIN format: a month letter (A=January…L=December), a certification-year digit, then two model-year digits.
Is SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY still in business?
USCG records list SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY of DULUTH, MN in the MIC database (registered 2013), associated with LA FOND DU LAC PROJECTS INC.
How do I decode the year on a SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY HIN?
On current-format HINs the last two characters are the model year and the 9th–10th encode the certification month and year. SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY hulls (2013–present) 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 SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY 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 "SYY" MIC the same as a SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY serial number?
No. "SYY" is the Manufacturer Identification Code — characters 1–3 of the HIN — that identifies SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY. The hull serial number is characters 4–8: SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY'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 SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY 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 SYMPHONY BOAT COMPANY records, the title, or a marine survey to confirm the exact model and configuration.
