The HIN should be on the top right corner of the transom. If its no longer there, someone has done some body work and covered it up. You might be able to lightly grind down and find it if they didnt grind it totally out of there. Its just embossed in the fiberglass so it can be easily removed if someone wants too. If it is a Vulture and an older one like mine, it wont have a US Coast Guard plate. I asked Howard about it a few years back and he said between the age and it being 20 feet and over, there is tech no horsepower restrictions so no plate was needed. They did put them in later boats though for partially for insurance reasons on both ends.

Do you have any pictures of the boat? If so, start a new topic with boat pics so we dont keep clogging up Bills topic here. :)
