This article walks through the locations of serial numbers on Cannon Products.
Your Cannon 11-character serial number is very important. It helps to determine the specific model and year of manufacture. When contacting Consumer Service or registering your product, you will need to know your product’s serial number. We recommend that you write the serial number down in your product’s user manual or somewhere outside of your boat so you have it available for future reference.
