Missing HIN on Lagoon 450

[ramblinrod]

When I am asked to work on a boat, if the HIN is missing or obscured, I request proof of ownership. The last thing I need is to load 1000's in materials and labour onto a boat only to find out that the boat was stolen.

Any update of finding the HIN?

HI,

The HIN and CIN have both been found safe and alive... The folks that were looking for it had assumed they were moulded into the gel coat and were walking around looking down.... But it appears they are more engraved in fine print and are visible only if you know where to look and get down on you hands and knees.... They were both on the starboard transom where the photo said they would be... Two brokers and a surveyor missed it the first time around....

HI,

To give credit to the folks that were looking for it, even the photo they took is difficult to read as the markings are very fine...
