1984 Sea Ray… project boat
Engines
Mercruiser 240
Hey guys, I know this may seem like a million times asked question, but Im not finding the exact answer to my question.
How can I find out what model my 1984 boat is? HIN: SER94 T24 0684 20710 1533 84
What I know from there is that it is a Sea Ray from 1984. I can’t tell if it is a 207 model?, then what else… Seville? Monaco??
Thanks everyone.

Looks like a 207 Monaco. But go look on Sea Ray's site at the archived brochures - you can match it up, for sure, that way.
 
Rats! Unfortunately their archives only go back to 1989 and the 207 Monaco is not in that list. Oh well. Now we know it’s a Monaco! Thanks again.
 
You must be looking at the wrong site? It's definitely there. Archives go back much, much further.
 
I got it now. Lol! Thanks so much for your speedy responses!
 
hey here it would be nice too have the corect link to this site to looup models ;

That number sequence is not a proper HIN look again should be starboard corner

Searay is also know for imprinting their own production code on the hull

the HIN is 12 digits should be

SEAa1234ay87

a is typically a letter for the plant that built it then four number serial
Next a letter for month of manufacture
y is a single number last digit of the year manufactured
Last two number model year

edit:
The style above is from August 1984 to present
Yours could be different format but from 1972 to August 84 it still shoild be 12 digits
If there is mo other
your HIN could be the first 12 of that sequence
SER94 T24 0684
The old style would be
SEA Searay
94 T24 production code
Manufactered June of 84

Kim, the general directions where given above in the first couple of posts - "go to Sea Ray's website".

How long is your boat? It looks like, from one of your posts that you're just guessing? Measure it if you have to. Look for models that are about the length of what you measure. Looks to be about 24'-26'?

If you don't see something that matches, look a few years forward or back. Sometimes, a few of the models are missing.

thx for answer i will mesure it i did look online loong time and my gues was it was a searay monaco 21 feet just want too be sure i did not see one exactly the same but close .. thx kim ...
 
You could be right that's only 21' - I just quickly looked on SR's site and I think the 25' has too much cockpit space. In your pics, the boat sure does look bigger, though! But looking at the 210 Monaco... what about the SR pics makes you think it's NOT the right one? Again, I only looked quickly, but it sure does look like a match.
 
i think it is the monaco model but on the link in this treats i do not find this model from 1987 and if i say the size is 21 feet then nothing comes up olso on 24 feet etc ...

Ok so had to get to my PC to blow up that photo
So your official HIN and this is what should be on your registration and title to be legal is:

SERM0398D787
let's break this down
SER USCG SeaRay manufactures ID (SEA RAY BOATS 800 SOUTH GAY ST SUITE 1300 KNOXVILLE TN)
M0398 the "serial number" where SeaRay used the first alpha character as the plant code where built
SER (M) - Oxford Plant - Michigan
D7 built the fourth month of 1987 - April 1987
87 model year 1987 Boat models years typically ran from August 1 to July 31st

below the HIN is typical SeaRay production code details
little grain so correct me if off looks like?
210CG0452

So should be a model 210
model options "CG"
0452 the four hundredth fifty second hull produces at Michigan plant
(not the 452nd of this model, but of all models from that plant that year)

example my 300 dancer is
300DA1203
a 300 Sundancer Express Cruiser
1203 the 1,203rd hull from the Tennessee plant

I think you're not scrolling down. There's a whole lot more boats listed there - I see ones all the way (including the 210 Monaco) to 27'
