Enterprise age?

   The current rules have this to say :-

					"The sail number shall be carved in figures not less than 19 mm high in the transom

or may be in the upper face of the aft thwart on moulded and composite boats.

					A production serial number shall be engraved on a plate permanently fastened to the inner
face of the transom of all boats with moulded hulls." 
Not sure how much of that applies to older GRP boats, the number on the makers plate may or may not correspond to the sail number (most likely does on older boats though) but the sail number, if the boat was registered, should be on the hull somewhere.

	It should also be carved on the transom, I think. The sails might not originally belong to the boat.
