Hello members
I was about to buy a 11' whaler but resourcing I'm coming up with some snags.
Serial number was given to me as, BWCK 0492 E 586
whaler has no record of 586,
they have a 585
Advertised as a 87, Whaler says 85
Advertised as a sport, whaler says if it's 585 it's a standard
which means tiller not remote
this boat has remote
attached some pics
can anyone lend a idea?
does this look like a sport, ss or standard?
additional pics avial if you email me
seller is not avail to confirm on his end till later tonight and tomorrow is supposed to be deal day
cheers
eric

Eric,
According to the HIN numbers you gave:
E5 = this boat was made in E= May of 1985
86 = should be a 1986 model year
However, this numbers do not seem to be correct.
If the boat was made in E5, then it should be a 1985 year model as the year model would not change unless the boat was made in July of 1985 as a 1986 model year.
See the reference article here:

Look at the
New Year Format on the above link.
I think they may have given you the wrong numbers. They are hard to read sometimes...
