Hello,
I am looking for some advice on finding the Hull Identification Number on an Orkney Fastliner 19ft? The boat was recently purchased in Wexford and the HIN is required for insurance purposes.

I had one of these boats for a good few years before I got my first Warrior 175. She was a centre console model like yours. Grand boat. I would suggest that you stick a number inside the console or something like that and call it your serial number.

We knew that they were not the "real thing". You can tell from subtle differences, apart from the fact that there was no plate and suchlike. It was also not perfectly like the Fastliner "Bass Hunter" which was the Orkney centre console version.
As I say I never followed the Panda trail to its end.
