RS200 buld dates

   Sorry to ask another 200 based question, but does anyhone know from what sail number the Brazilian boats started coming through?  I'm looking at a few 200's and dont want to get stuck with one.

	Normally you can tell by looking inside the hatches, iirc, if the epoxy is yellow its brazilian, and paler its british, dont know if that was true or a myth tho!
