I'm
buying a sailboat in
Canada to bring back to the US. The
customs broker says I need to file an EPA form, which needs an
engine build date on the form.
I've emailed the
serial number and model to the biggest
Yanmar dealer around, they can't help, except that it was made between 1992 and 1999... referred me to their distributor. Distributor can't help, says they're waiting for an answer from
Yanmar.
I've emailed the Yanmar contact addresses, no luck so far.
Can anyone determine a build date from a model and
serial number? Any ideas on where I can get that information. Seems like it should be a pretty simple code, but impossible to decipher for most of us.
