Hi everyone, I have a 1983 Monty 15 which has a completely reversed hull id #. It ends in "...51PMM" instead of beginning with "MMP15..." is there anyone that knows the story behind whu there are some hulls with reversed IDs? I've seen mention of a few on the sites, but no reasoning behind it. Thanks in advance, Joey

The way the number puncher works is that you have to do it backwards since it prints inside out. I usually printed them out myself since I do have dyslexia and it came natural for me (just kidding). Probably someone printed one out when I was gone. Maybe. First misteak i've ever made. jerry ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joey Stubbs" <joey.stubbs@earthlink.net> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2011 8:22 AM Subject: M_Boats: Reversed Hull numbers

Is this a March '83 (3830xxx51PMM) boat, Joey? Back on May 7, Mike Johnson reported a M-17 with backwards HIN 383066371PMM, which could be the same one I asked the list about back in July of 2005 (when from memory I had the HIN as "383xx-xx71RMM"). Perhaps Jerry had entrusted this task to a newer employee who just didn't quite grasp the concept back in early 1983? John Tyner M-15 #412 "Chimpanzee" (which happens to have its HIN applied correctly!) On 5/25/2011 10:22 AM, Joey Stubbs wrote:
