Epic skis? was created by 1xsculler
Every V-12 I've seen, and one was delivered new in late 2011, have a black 2009 as the last numbers in the serial number on the stern.
Were all V-12s made in in 2009 or what does the 2009 refer to?

current skis: SES Ultra. sculling boats: Fluidesign Lwt, Wintech, Empacher.

And the answer from Epic is: black 2009 numbers refer to the year the mold was made.
The three numbers preceding the "D" with the circle around it indicate the build year, i.e. 112 means the ski was built in 2011 (before August, I think) for the 2012 year.
212 indicates the ski was built in 2012 for the 2012 year.
That's not perfectly clear to me either but it pretty much answers my question about the black 2009 numbers.
Epic's production years run August to August for what that's worth.

Doesn't work very well for my V12.
I think that 90757D must refer to the amount of defects it had repaired before it was delivered to me.

Follow the path of the independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the dangers of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of 'crackpot' than the stigma of conformity. And on issues that are important to you, stand up and be counted at any cost.--- Thomas J. Watson
