Marine ID Guide

Datatag Marine Identification Guide

Today, unfortunately, theft is a sad fact of life. And often it's difficult for the Police to identify stolen property, vehicles or machinery simply because the original serial numbers and manufacturers identifying marks have been removed, changed or damaged, thus making it impossible to prove theft or ensure the safe return of property to the rightful owner. In such cases the thief often gets away with the crime and unbelievably can even get to keep the goods!

This marine identification guide is available for download as a PDF document, by requesting access by emailing info@datatag.co.uk. A link to download the PDF will be emailed to you, which can then be viewed on a smart phone, tablet, laptop or PC.

It is only available exclusively to all police officers, law enforcement agencies and port authorities to help easily locate the correct HIN (Hull Identification Number) or CIN (Craft Identification Number) on the most stolen outboard motors, inboard motors, personal watercraft (PWC) and marine craft (RIBS, Powerboats, Sailboats).

This handbook provides information on:

  • The range of marine craft
  • Manufacturers of the various type of marine craft
  • Location of HIN/CIN

Marine and PWC stolen equipment database can be accessed by Police by calling Datatag on 0044 (0)3 450 700 440 24 hours a day!
