    The first three letters of the HIN (hull identification number) tells the manufacturer. You can find a chart online.

    Is there a chance it was made by MFG. They made Tri-hull boats, and that looks sort of like what they make.

    It does look similar to my MFG, but the letters is telling you the manufacturer. Mine has MFG on the id plate. Actually, MFG made boats for Sears, that were called Game Fisher. From what I see in the pictures, yours looks the same as mine. Is the floor flat in yours, or is there a series of step downs in it, which is why I put plywood and carpet on the floor, as it is hard to walk on, without turning an ankle, or worse.
