Interesting. Hull number 100 (some of the internal documents in my build file show my boat as 380047 with an extra 0, even though the HIN is 38047.) I have been told that production of the 38 mk2 started around 090, and around September of 1976. I would think that would make Delaney a 1977 model.
Something similar to your situation happened with my 25, and I didn't notice it until I moved to NC and had to get it titled. The HIN on the plate in the cockpit has an extra 0 on it, so the HIN and the metal plate did not match. Neither did the bill of sale from Maryland and my registration from Pennsylvania match the HIN molded into the transom. Had a heck of a time convincing the NCDMV to give me a title and NC registration numbers. I looked up Delany in the USCG Documentation database. Besides the partial HIN, I also noticed that your gross tonnage is greater than Imzadi's, but the net tonnage is the same.

It is stamped with the number "380100-76". All of the paperwork that I have shows the serial number from the plate, no MIC letter codes. I don't have the builder's file, but I think I'll call South Shore and see if I can get it.
