WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR HIN FAQ

What does a WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR HIN look like?

It starts with the three characters "WMR" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR hulls (2018–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 WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR 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 "WMR" MIC the same as a WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR serial number?

No. "WMR" is the Manufacturer Identification Code — characters 1–3 of the HIN — that identifies WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR. The hull serial number is characters 4–8: WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR'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 WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR 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 WHITEWATER MARINE REPAIR records, the title, or a marine survey to confirm the exact model and configuration.
