Welcome!

Marlin?? Is that the model name??? Is it a wooden or fiberglass boat??

Look for the hull ID. If built after November 1972 it will be on the outside of the transom on the starboard side. If built prior to November 1972 look inside the transom.

And what is the serial number??? This is needed to determine the year.

I looked thru some Cruisers, Inc. brochures. The 22 ft. MARLIN model 22621 is listed in the 1969 brochure but it is not pictured. It was a new model that year, unveiled at the Marine Trades Exhibit in Chicago in September 1968. It is a cathedral hull (tri-hull) with "hide-away" cabin.

She is pictured in the 1970 brochure. I have a four page flyer on the floatation testing of this particular model

She is in the 1972, 1975, and 1976 brochures. She disappeared from the line in 1977.

Hummmm....that serial number might indicate 1971. I am not certain however.

I suggest you contact Cruisers and give them the model number and name, serial number and tell 'em that it is fiberglass. Ask them if they can determine the year of the boat.

Here is information from the 1970 Cruisers, Inc. brochure about the Marlin. I do NOT have 1971 brochures.
