Trying to get year of my boat ???

[gmasichuk]

Greeting from baton rouge. Does anyone have a clue on the year of my boat no hull id number but the boat has a plate inside the transom:
Hull # 25665 and class number - 4919, Thanks, Greg

This gives me a little inf. the class number seems to be the correct ref. number ? a 4919 looks to be a dsII between 71 and 84. Am I on the right track ??? The 25665 is the ???

Actually, the Class number is the more important one. That is the number that would go on your sail, if you race. It is also the number you should use on the chart in the Technical Info section of this website. Going by that your boat would be a DS I built before 1972. (Mine is a 1965 and it is 1868, so I would guess yours is probably in 1971 or 1972.)

I'm told the Hull number is the total number of hulls O'day made of all types of boat (Rhodes 19, Widgon, Daysailer etc.) up to that time. The 4119 is the number of DS's made to that time.

I hope that helps

Look at the for sale section and there's a daysailer there thats close to yours and they said it was a 71:

Sail #: 4795
Hull #: 25224
