Since Byron (exsailor) just bought a 1985 53ED that is hull #740 and I own a 1985 that is hull #759 and DLCameron owns #760, does that mean that they built at least 21 ED's that year? I assume that's true, but I'm not exactly sure how the numbering works. It would just be interesting to know how many were built each year. I know we've discussed the proprietary nature of these numbers before and how Hatteras seems less than willing to release them. It just got me thinking, that's all.

If that is true for the ED, then you mulitply that by how many other models and you come up with a pretty large number as far as overall production that year. That's impressive. I know Hatteras has built a bunch of boats, but I never knew it was that many. I wonder what their best year was as far as overall units produced.
