How to Read a Regal Marine Hull Identification Number
If you own or are looking to purchase a Regal Marine boat, the 12-character HIN stamped on the transom contains key manufacturing details. Every genuine hull built by Regal Marine begins with the letters RGM. Here is how each section breaks down:
- Characters 1–3 (RGM): Identifies Regal Marine as the certified manufacturer registered with the US Coast Guard.
- Characters 4–8: Unique internal production serial number for that specific boat hull.
- Character 9: Production month code, where A represents January, B represents February, through L representing December.
- Character 10: The last digit of the year the boat was manufactured at the facility.
- Characters 11–12: The official certified model year of the vessel.
For instance, in the sample HIN RGM12345D424, the boat was manufactured by Regal Marine (RGM) in April for the 2024 model year. Always check that the model year decoded matches the boat title and registration card before completing a purchase.
