BWM Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 4 hours ago, pete harrison said: I would suggest that the B.W.B. Index Number for your last boat was issued in 1990 whilst it was being built so prior to its completion date of 1992 Could be, I bought it in 2001 so don't know how long the build took. Would it be normal to acquire the reg number before construction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
