How can I tell which mod?

My friend has a Capri 14.2 that she wants to sell. The hull number is 4511. We're not sure how old it is. Can mod be determined by hull number?
Thanks,
John

I just bought my Capri 14.2, hull number 4961. It is a 2001 model. Your friend's boat's year is older.

It is my understanding that during the 70's & early 80's Catalina built the Omega 14. In 1983, the boat was redesigned and renamed the Capri 14.2, which we refer to as the "mod 1's". The "mod 2's" were introduced in about 1990. The "mod 3's" were first produced in 1996. I do not believe there have been any major changes since then. The hull # and date built should be on the outside of the transom on the starboard side near the top. Example -- CPSD4616C797 = sail/hull # 4616, date built - 7 (July) of 97 (1997). I believe those dates, for the "mods" to be correct, but please post a reply if you have more accurate info.
