Looks like a 2000 a little bit. Maybe a prototype?

Nah ... Looks more like a Bahia .. Look at the bow.

Rig looks quite old and battered, so its not going to be anything made in the last 8 or so years ...

i thought it looked a bit like a bahia from the bow, but it doesn't have a pole and the whole cockpit arangement is different

It looks like an Express - as Jim C says, in very good nick.

hmmm, one of my mates had an ancient 600, one of the first out the mould and it was very light but flexier than a flexy thing. he reconned if he took it out in a blow he could snap the boat in half.
600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318

I reckon keep your money, the boat is being sold by a trader as well! Unless you just want to break it or bits!

It is indeed an express. I remember one being sailed regularly many years ago at my old club. From what I remember it used to always sail in the slow fleet, i think the handicap was 130-odd (in old money!).
