On another "Whaler related" website (c/w 15' "demensions and history"), it states that all 15' hull's prior to stencil #5A0857 had a 1' piece of wood down the center line of the floor, all hull #'s after that have wood under the entire skid resistant floor. My stencil # is 5A0865, does this mean that my hull was the 9th hull off the line in 1976 with the newly designed floor wood in the hull ?
Any input is appreciated.

In an article on "Continuous wave" web site, (15' Dementions and History) it states "The Hull's prior to Hull number 5A0857 have wood embedded in the cockpit floor only in a 1' foot wide strip running up the center, later hull's had wood reinforcement for the full width of the non-skid portion."
My hull stencil # is 5A0865
