Welcome aboard! The hull ID for your Cruisers, Inc. will be stamped into the wood of the transom, inside the boat. Typically it is on the starboard (right) side. Often tiems it is stamped upside down. It may be covered up by some component attached to the transom.

Cruisers, Inc. also started to put the hull ID on a small metal tag that was nailed to the outside of the hull just below the gunwale. I am not certain what year they started that and I cannot recall if it was ont eh port or starboard side. It was about midships. Often times those tags got removed when someone repainted the boat.

Brochures can be obtained via the Thompson CD-ROM from Dan Miller at www.dragonflycanoe.com
