Benson Gray Canoe History Enthusiast Staff member Sep 5, 2018 #2 Welcome and congratulations, your number may be a hull identification number but these usually start with three letters. The information at http://www.boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/hin.htm describes how to interpret these numbers. The CLS prefix is described at http://uscgboating.org/content/manufacturers-identification-detail.php?id=17831 as being used by Calypso Classic. They have a page at https://www.facebook.com/Calypso-Classic-Boats-188766881311060/ on Facebook. Some pictures may help since there isn't much more that anyone here can tell you from that number alone. Benson
