Talk:C&C 30

First Build Date
I own hull #7 of 800 built of the C&C 30 MK I. The hull identification number of my boat is 30007972. Decoded, that is C&C 30 #007 built September 1972. Therefore it is inaccurate for the article to state "first built 1973". I know the article is citing sailboatdata.com, but the information on sailboatdata.com is incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:283:4000:4d19:885f:1d82:bb9f:359a (talk)
 * It is possible that saliboatdata is incorrect, but it is also possible that your WP:OR understanding of the serial number is incorrect. We would need a new WP:RS to change this. If I had to guess I would suspect that, like cars, yours is a 1973 model, built in Sept 1972, but again we'd need a ref to confirm that. - Ahunt (talk) 11:34, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
