Hi looking to purchase a Williams Jet tender 285. The seller does not have the date of when it was made, does anyone know how to check the boat for a build date.

There should be a HIN number (hull identification number) on the hull, most likely on the upper-right corner on the transom. The last two numbers will be the year manufactured. The number starts with the letters WTP.

Hull Identification Numbers

Confusion over model years, especially on outboard engines, can frustrate buyers. Here's how to find that info on the products themselves.

You are welcome. Not too familiar. Seen a few. My tender is a Zodiac Cadet alumrib 330. Williams tenders are a nice rig.
