is it possible to find out the history (insurance claims) of a boat by the hull numbers? I know you can do it on a car by using the VIN, they have a data base that insurance companies use. Do they have the same set up for boats?

Coast Guard records are available

Data on vessels collected by the Coast Guard are available at this web site: http://psix.uscg.mil/ You can search by name, hull number, and many other fields. Presumably, if a vessel had an accident that caused more than $500 in damage, the Coast Guard would have a record of it. Phil Decker S/V "Catmandu"

Phil, Can you check that web address? I can't get it to open as it is typed in your post. Thanks.

I think the link was correct. Try clicking the "Related Link" at the bottom of my previous post. Otherwise, try: http://psix.uscg.mil/VesselSearch.asp or the Related Link below.
