Customer Feedback
Thank you very much. You provide good service that I intend to use again.
Best $39.99 I have ever spent. Boat History Report saved me on a $25,000 purchase of a salvaged boat that the owner "didn't know about". Boat History Report displays great customer service. They have been very accommodating in my search for a new boat! Don't hesitate to spend the money and save yourself from a huge mistake.
Thank you, I’ve loved using your service, and will tell everyone what a great company you are!
Thank you so much for your help. You have truly been a blessing to Jenna and I and we are so grateful for your help. We have been dreaming of this for over three decades and it is starting to look up. With your and your company’s help, we think this is going to happen. The report looks fantastic and I will let you know when we close. Thank you again and what a wonderful experience with Boat History Report customer service.
I am extremely impressed with Boat History’s thoroughness, promptness and unsolicited willingness to go the extra (nautical) mile to get its customers whatever information is out there even though the cost to the customer is extremely small in comparison to the amount of human research undertaken when things are less than clear-- as they were in this case because of the “unofficial”Hull ID #. Your finding this accident gave me substantial relief regarding the absence of a 12th digit in the Hull ID # and thankfully, it was such a small collision, that even my surveyor will, I think, be unconcerned.
I am impressed that you were able to track down the information… AND get back to me so quickly. Thank you for following up. Mark me down as a very satisfied customer. If I buy another boat, I will absolutely get another report.
I was able to read this report and based on this information, this boat looks pretty good. I am doing the sea trial tomorrow afternoon. Thank you very much, and you have been more than awesome and have earned every penny of this report!! I am MORE than pleased with your service! Thanks again, and for sure on my next boat, I will once again, seek your expertise!
My experience has been really positive. I really liked that all my information was there and it was credible for backing up the sale of our boat to an owner in Canada. It substantiated and gave a credibility to the sale... ... Thanks for all your help, as I do think it helped play a role in the selling of our boat over a long distance- Willis, Texas to Canada.
I want to thank you for the excellent service that I received from you and your company. Even though the manufacturer could not provide the needed information to do a complete survey, you were very helpful! And true to your word you provided a 100% money back guarantee! I will be back…thank you!
Your rapid and professional responses have provided me the information I needed to make an informed decision when looking at a boat that I assumed was a Katrina victim, even though the owner told me it was clean. Saved me many headaches and a “boatload” of cash. Thanks!

- What is a HIN?
The HIN (Hull Identification Number)
The Hull Identification Number (HIN) serves as the boat’s unique identifier, similar to the VIN of a car. If the dealer or broker listing the boat has not provided you with a report from Boat History Report®, ask them to provide you with the boat’s HIN so that you can run your own.
The HIN may be found on the back of the boat in the uppermost right corner or under the swim platform. Also, the HIN may be stated on the title, registration, and insurance documents. For boats 1984 and newer, Federal regulations mandate the HIN must follow the format in the image below. For additional HIN formats and a more detailed explanation, be sure to check out our HIN Troubleshooting Guide.
