Default Serial Number Decipher

Does anyone know if you can determine the option level of a boat based on the Serial #. Similar to the VIN on a vehicle.. The boat in question is a 2000 Shabah 183, But I am not sure of the equipment level. It is currently in winter storage but I am trying to do as much research ahead of time as possible..

Does anyone have any pictures of this model.. It is quite difficult to find some..

Any help is appreciated.. Thanks

    As a 'silver' contributor, you have access to our Promotional Materials Archive which contains a 2000 Millenium brochure. The '183' model is shown there with all the relevant options available.

    As for the serial # breakdown, check out this post:

    Hull Identification Numbers (HIN's)

    There is nothing in the serial # though that tells you what options were included with the boat.
