[#16566]

I recently aquired an old H14. I'm not sure of the year of manufacture. The sail number is 1260 and the second panel from the top is yellow. The hull number is 1460 and they burnt orange.

I know that it is pre 1973 adn that the H14 started production in 1968.

Does anyone have any idea which of these 4 years it was made?

Thanks,

Try using this link, http://www.hobiecat.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=1155 to determine the age of your boat.

Hull numbers

There is no list of sail numbers, only hull numbers can determine dates. (Know what, WE should make our own list! I'll post something on this in a seperate posting.)

I've looked on the Hobie site and havn't found the answer. It's great if the hull number is the current syntax, but for the older boats it doesn't help. It only tells you where to find the hull number.
