The K&K Industries in Michigan made Aero Powerboats and it should have a HIN starting with KNK. One of the many boat companies from the same person, known as a Klym Gem. They made a 24X7 copy, 27 Magnum copy and your 32 is a Excalibur copy.

Here are a few pic's of the Klem Gems, the blue & white hull is a 31'. Jim made a copy of the 27' Magnum hull for the 28 & 288 adding a deck change for the 288 model. The 31' was copied from a 31' Excalibur also with a few deck changes..
