Generally, it's the last two digits in the number. CCMA7987M75? (with the ? being another letter) is probably what your serial number looks like. That would make it a '75. |

S - second (blemish) In the late 70's / early 80's, Hobie Cat would sell "seconds" at a discount. These usually had some minor cosmetic defect in the gel coat. On all the ones I saw, it was tough to find the blemish. |
