Thanks Randy! 

If #1 was 1971 and #79 was 1972 C&C could be making 70 hulls a year. Then 
there’s that the 74 portion of the HIN doesn’t necessarily mean when the boat 
was built but the earliest it could have been built. My boat being #281 does 
make sense. Wow that’s a lot of boats in a short time.
