Hello again, Gail.

When referring to the hull number, do you mean the number on the forward side of the main mast cross beam? (See Sea Sharp II photo on MOA site for reference.)

For corroboration, check on the back edge of the cutting board, on the under side of engine hatch coverings, etc. The hull number is often written there in pen or pencil.

Check out the cabin photos in the SALES BROCHURE of the M31 on the MOA site. One or two show the main bulkhead covered w/an antique kind of fabric. (So, it's likely original.)

Also, in the SPECIFICATIONS section and down at the bottom of the page is a line drawing of an M31 dated Feb 1968.

It certainly seems yours could be hull #3.

[> [> Hull numbers -- Mike m-40, - Monday - 03/26/07 - 5:05pm

Hi Gail
I have a mariner 40, hull #61. I was contacted by another owner of the same hull #. I called the Coast Guard to ensure my boat wasn't stole and the numbers changed. They informed me that there were several #61's on their books. Who knows why they had multiple #'s. Maybe it was for tax reasons.

Mike,

I have an M40 as well, hull #85, not only is the number in the bow over the v-berth on a plate, but we have found the number in many different areas. Under some of the drawers, behind panels etc., along with Japanese characters in each case. At least 6 different locations with the #85 written in black marker. Not sure if this is any help or not.. good Luck
