Hey! I'm new to the forum, and i don't know if thre is a newbie section but I was wondering if there is a database, or a timeline site to help me identify my boat? It was owned by my grandfather and he died 10 years ago and nobody seems to know what model it is. It's just a matter of intrest for me. I know for sure its a thundercraft, and i know it has an inline 6. I think it's a mid 70s? any help?

Now do you think "In Business: 1/1/1975" is the year the company was founded or the year my boat was built? I guess it didn't have a model name??

Where are you from? The nick Cordova has mr curious. I'm from mississauga (a sub-urb of toronto). I question what you mean by that? I have always loved the name cordova. The meaning behind it is that Cordova was a proclaimed biblical place that was supposed to be a place of the gods and perfection, but when believers went there it was really a trick by demon forces to lure people in to darkness. It doesn't mean I'm a devil worshiper by any means...quite the oppisite. I just like the suprise the name carries. I guess you could call me a bit of a poser.

"In Business: 1/1/1975" refers to the company.
The last 4 digits of the HIN contain the month and year of manufacture. In your case it looks like January 1977.
