Hi,
Yesterday I bought a DaySailer I, and now I'm trying to get it registered. The title (California) isn't clear on what the hull number is. After the hull number field it says "pleasure", and before the hull number field it says "1940". The title says it and the trailer was manufactured in 1971. The DMV was certain that "pleasure" is the hull number because they say that "1940" is too short to be a hull number.
Anyways, now that I have it home, I'm trying to find the hull number on the boat somewhere, and so far I'm coming up empty. I've looked for numbers stamped on the transom, inside on the transom and under the rear deck, inside the cockpit, and under the cuddy area on the roof and the walls... and so far I've found nothing. Is there something I'm missing?
I sure look forward to getting it out on the water. This is my first sailboat. I've never sailed before but I've wanted to pretty much my whole life.
Thanks for your time!
Matt
