      7358 is a Mk1 GRP boat registered in 1968.

      I bought her a couple of years ago, at which point she was called Aguamenti (the Harry Potter ‘water’ spell) and I have the latest issued measurement certificate in my name.

      I can’t find the sail number on the hull and the sails are not the originals, but 7358 would definitely have been exactly this model and age of boat, so 7358 is most likely correct.

      The only other things I have worked out about her history are (1) that she was first registered as “Marty S” in July 1968 by an American owner and (2) she was raced in the CVRDA Shearwater Rallies in 2007 and 2008 (I found results and photos  from a Google search and the boat is recognisable in the photos); and (3)  the previous owner told me that he bought her off someone who had used her for club racing.

      Having discovered this small amount of information, I’m now intrigued and I would like to find out more if I can!

      thanks and regards,

      Paul.
