Shrouds are attached to a bolt going all the way trough the mast. Before going out take the bolt out and check to see how much mast is left under the bolt. If it's been used in salt there may not be much. Ours snapped off like a carrot because of corrosion. Put it back with some Duralac to stop the corrosion.

Nicola sounds more informed than me...

Yes, typically sail numbers are allocated roughly sequentially and can give an idea of date. Hull numbers too I expect, but because sail numbers are so handy most sailors don't pay much attention to them, so you'd probably need someone ho was associated with the factory.

Thanks.
I thought the numbers LLG 464 may have meant something to someone.
I’ve seen that the laser 2 sail numbers correspond to years of manufacture, but my sails don’t have numbers ?

I’m just interested in finding out that’s all

Cheers. Dan.

iirc the L2 Fun was   mid 90s to keep  the moulds busy  as  the serious racers moved to the  quasi skiffs   such as the 4 and 5 tonner  and the topper / white   ISO family

I'll make a finger in the air guess of early to mid 80s, but that is purely based on not remembering seeing many round after that, not on anything more useful. I would be mildly surprised if it wasn't last century.
