Hull numbers include a code that is the labelled as "hull number" which I read a the number of hulls built. I'm not 100% sure that this is number of hulls built for a particular model, but I believe it is. On my website, the Stinger registry has two hull numbers for 415s - according to the hull numbers there were at least 119 415s built? Also interesting is it looks like the 415s may have been built in two of Chris Craft's plants - one in Bellingham, WA and one in Sarasota (Bradenton), FL.

The 415 I recently purchased was built in WA.
I was curious about production numbers, because I have never seen one out on the water. Also very little info about them on the web.
I was curious what power upgrades folks were doing and the speeds they were achieving.
The plan is to supercharge a couple of HP500's and see what we end up with. Hopefully the Trannies and TRS's can handle that kind of power.

Yea, the Hawk I bought does not weigh that much. I think about 11K. But I just bought it a couple months ago. If you go into the Excalibur forum, under 40 Excalibur Hawk totally updated. Just to give you an idea of power and speeds.

I don't think it's the Excalibur hull - I believe the 390x was built off of the 40' Excalibur hull. The 390x has an 8' beam. The 415 has a 9' beam. Also, the 390x has no port-holes in the hull where the 415 does.
