I’m not sure a photo will help as she’s had a fairly comprehensive restoration over the years. But any excuse to post some photos! Will try hunt down some bulkhead numbers though, thank you!

Hmmm, maybe you’re just an oddball outlier, no offence! Possible request for that number from the original owner. Early in the new registration period so lots of numbers still available?? Thanks for the info though. Cheers

Fantastic! Thank you, couldn’t really ask for more than that…

Hi all, looking for a little help please. I bought an ‘A’ registration, A112, day boat and I’m trying to figure out the year. As I understand it ‘A’ registration relates to the 1950’s but I’d like to narrow it down a bit. I’m sure there are members here that have boats with registrations earlier and later than 112 and know the specific year of their boats. It might help me get closer to the year of registration in the 50’s for mine. I did pop along to the original boat builders, Sabena Marine, previously Sabberton Bros, to see if he could help, but unfortunately he only has records back to the 60’s. Also, I’ve seen a number of boats with metal registration marks on them. Mine currently has stickers in a fairly modern font which I don’t think looks great. Is there a place I can buy metal numbers/letters in a period font if there is such a thing? Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
