Searching by MIC: Hull Identification Numbers (HIN) are required on all boats manufactured since 1972. The first three letters of the HIN, known as the MIC, identify the manufacturer of the vessel. To search by MIC, enter at least one letter, with a maximum of three, into the MIC text box and click Search. The results will be displayed alphabetically by MIC.

Searching by Company: To search by company name, enter at least one letter up to the complete name of the company into the Company text box and click Search. The search engine will display all records that either match your search criteria exactly or contain the search criteria somewhere within the Company field. The results will be displayed alphabetically by company name.

Searching by City: To search by city, enter a city name into the City text box and click Search. The results will be displayed alphabetically by MIC.

Searching by State: To search by state, select a state from the drop down list box and click Search. The results will be displayed alphabetically by MIC.

Searching by Misc: To search across multiple fields, enter text into the Search by Misc text box and click Search. The results will be displayed alphabetically by MIC.

Refining your search: To refine your search and narrow down the results, enter as much reliable information into as many fields as possible. If your search results do not produce the desired results, click the Go back to MIC Search link at the bottom of the results page. The previous criteria will be displayed in the search fields. You can edit these criteria or click Reset to begin again.
