FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE HIN FAQ

What does a FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE HIN look like?

It starts with the three characters "ZCR" — the Manufacturer Identification Code the US Coast Guard assigned to FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE — followed by a 5-character hull serial and a 4-character date code, 12 characters total. FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE built hulls across both HIN eras (1974–1996): boats before August 1984 carry legacy straight-year or model-year date codes; later hulls use the current month-letter format. The decoder handles all three.

Is FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE still in business?

USCG records list FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE as out of business since 1996. 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 FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE HIN?

On current-format HINs the last two characters are the model year and the 9th–10th encode the certification month and year. FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE built hulls across both HIN eras (1974–1996): boats before August 1984 carry legacy straight-year or model-year date codes; later hulls use the current month-letter format. The decoder handles all three. Enter the full 12-character HIN above and the decoder works it out, including the legacy formats.

Where is the HIN on a FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE 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 "ZCR" MIC the same as a FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE serial number?

No. "ZCR" is the Manufacturer Identification Code — characters 1–3 of the HIN — that identifies FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE. The hull serial number is characters 4–8: FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE'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 FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE 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 FIBRE DE VERRE RADISSON LTEE records, the title, or a marine survey to confirm the exact model and configuration.
