Hello Andrew, You have decoded correctly. Except technically 0474 is the month and year that C&C Yachts certified your boat met all the regulations it was supposed to meet (according to https://newboatbuilders.com/docs/HIN-101-for-boat-owners-part2.pdf <https://newboatbuilders.com/docs/HIN-101-for-boat-owners-part2.pdf>).
I own 30 MK I hull #79 which was built in 1972 before HINs were standardized. My boat’s HIN is simply 30007972. I confirmed via Rob Ball and Rob Mazza that I have hull #79, built in 1972 (I initially thought I had hull #7). Rick Bushie on this list has hull #1, named Anchovy, and it was built in 1971. He previously wrote: "The I.D. plate on Anchovy reads as follows: 30 1 71. No zeros, no month.” Cheers, Randy Stafford SV Grenadine C&C 30 MK I #79 Ken Caryl, CO > On Oct 7, 2021, at 6:14 PM, andrew_m--- via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > wrote: > > Hi!
