My vintage Cherub was built in New Zealand in 1971. I have an "Eleven Plus" in the garage which is *very* slowly getting done up which must be very late 50s or early 60s I guess. Rupert probably has older boats...

Fireball was measured in 1981

Contender .. Well .. I have no idea!! I know it was built in Australia ... (AUS368) but havnt been able to track it down to a rough time zone.

Going by the above post ... I'd guess 1980 ish. Probably earlier.

And of course the Vareo .. 2001 (ish)

My N12s from 84 I think and you can tell . Still a good boat though, she has upset  many  ents and lasers in club races.

200s from around 1995 I think and is a lot better boat than a lot of the newer ones I have seen.
