Charlie, I think you are right.

Walter (Walt?), that was the first year they were required to stamp the Hull ID on the exterior right stern of the boat. Before that, you had to go fishing inside the stern (or under some parts like drawers) to find a hull number.

All boats built after 31 October, 1972 (AKA 1973 models, generally) are required to have the 12-Digit Hull I.D. Number permanently marked on the outside of the transom, near the Starboard side. However, that location seems to be ignored by Bangor Punta, since a friend of mine has a CAL 21 with the HIN located near the center of the transom and the HIN on my O'DAY Day Sailer II is also centered.
