    Pretty sure the HIN number starts out with the manufacturer as the first three letters. Might not be the case many years ago.

    I had this same issue with the 14ft flat bottom my son and I just re-built, even did a few Youtube videos on the whole process. The issue seems to be that the DMV was using the "AR number" in the absents of the HIN. So you come in without one they just made your HIN the AR number and sent you on your way which according to the United States Coast Guard is a no go. We purchased the boat off the FaceBook Market, I went down to reg it and they had it in their system as 1999 Waco, well after doing the same thing you did and sending pictures to the game and fish, turns out its a 1969 Eldocraft. Which is no big deal and kinda cool cause that is the year I was born and the boat is in way better shape than me at this point.

    If you are interested in seeing my vids let me know and I will post the link, they go into more details about the process, I will say it's not the worst experience that I have ever had at the DMV.

    That boat looks like it's way better shape than the one we picked up.

    It's a 72 mirrocraft. I had one just like it. Plus male sure to say it was 72 cause they didn't start putting ID# on until 72 and not all manufactures did then. Want mandatory until (I think 82). You can check under the front seat and the lip of the rear seat for the #also. If no luck on that approach tell them it a homemade boat. You will have to have it inspected by a game warden or COE officer (who does it in MS). They fill out form and you send it in.

    Well to revisit this, I took pictures, sent them in with the form the lady from AGFC sent me, so I'll let you guys know if I have any further issues.

    Thanks for all the help!

    hey guys, I want to revisit this....I got my letter back from AGFC, and now I have to permanently afix the HIN to the boat so i need i guess to go buy a metal stamp and a pop rivet tool to use....for one time EVER lol....then I have to move the old invalid HIN underneath the seat so it isn't visible...what a mess lol
