Just purchased this old Grampian boat and would be interested in the year it was made. All I have is the hull #1676. From all the ads it appears that they were quite popular in their day and continue to have a faithful following. The base of the trunk appears to be a 2x6 imbedded in fiberglass. It is showing some deterioration. What am I likely to find should I take it apart this winter? From the discoloration there appears to be a significant quantity of rust under the fiberglass as well. Sails fine as is but it looks a bit neglected. Thanks for any info you can share. Bob

It's an Albacore.

Great fast sailing dinghy designed by Uffa Fox in 1948. Yours is probably from around 1976. You can verify this date and get lots of information from the various Albacore websites. Enjoy!!!
