further characteristics
Also, the pre 1969 boats had an open cuddy back, I think. Then in that year they closed the back, added a sliding hatch, with hatchboards in the companionway, an opening forward hatch over the v berth, and had 4 berths rather than 2, hence the designation 2 + 2. The additional 2 berths were quarter berths extending aft under the cockpit seats. The necessitated raised cockpit seats (stepped) near the forward part of the cockpit. The post 1969 models also had a sink, port a potti, cooler and water tank.Given this information, can you identify if it is a pre or post 1969 model? There should also be a hull identification number (HIN) imbedded in the hull, near the lower gudgeon of the rudder fitting on the outside of the transom.
