The “Hull Identification Number” located on the
starboard side of the transom, is the most important
identifying factor and must be included in all
correspondence and orders. Failure to include it
creates delays. Also of vital importance are the engine
serial numbers and part numbers when writing about
or ordering parts for your engine. Refer to the Engine
Operator’s Manual for locations of engine serial
numbers and record them for future reference.

ERTIFICATION
As a boat manufacturer, Sea Ray builds their products
to guidelines established under the Federal Boat Safety
Act of 1971. The Act is promulgated by the United
States Coast Guard who has authority to enforce these
laws on boat manufacturers that sell products in the
United States. Sea Ray ensures that all of its products
comply with these laws.
The NMMA, National Marine Manufacturers
Association, provides Sea Ray with a third party
certification. The NMMA is an organization that
represents the marine industry and assists
manufacturers, boat dealers, marinas, repair yards
and component suppliers in areas of legislation,
environmental concerns, marine business growth and
state and federal government agency interaction. The
third party certification that Sea Ray participates in,
uses the well know Standards and Recommended
Practices of the ABYC, American Boat and Yacht
Council.
Sea Ray Boats participates extensively in the American
Boat and Yacht Council which is a non-profit
organization that develops and publishes voluntary
standards and recommended practices for boat and
equipment design, construction, service and repair.
We utilize all applicable ABYC standards in the
construction of your Sea Ray boat.
Finally, Sea Ray sells their products world wide and
as such must conform to the various rules and
regulations required by other countries. Most notably,
are the ISO standards in Europe which require the
application of the CE (Common European) mark. This
mark, much like the NMMA certification here in the US,
gives you the boat owner specific information
concerning your craft. For more information, turn to
Section 1 -
Safety , subsections 8 and 12 which
explains in detail the CE plate and its importance.
