Hey folks, I just bought a DS3 and am wondering where the HIN is on it. Apprently, I need a pencil sketching of it for the registration here.

Thanks in advance!

Should be stamped on the middle of the transom ... ?

You should be able to easily get a tracing from it.

A second HIN can sometimes be found starboard under the gunwales, or a bit forward of that. This is second hand info, since my DS predates HINs.

I also found my HIN inside the cuddy cabin on the port side looking up.

Yeah, turned out to be on the starboard side of the transom on this one.

I've heard that there are supposed to be two HIN numbers.
