Boat Sail Numbers & Year of Registration

The issue of sail numbers has not always been strictly sequential, but the following can be used as a general guideline:

1998 2000 - 2152

1999 2153 - 2364

2000 2365 - 2546

2001 2547 - 2786

2002 2787 - 2999 then 21000 - 21060

2003 21061 - 21276

2004 21277 - 21515

2005 21516 - 21733

2006 21734 - 21951

2007 21952 - 22098

2008 22099 - 22235

2009 22236 - 22274

2010 22275 - 22310

2011 22311 - 22343

2012 22344 - 22370 (approx)

2013 22501 - 22517

2014 22518 -

Consider though - a boat registered late in the year will possibly not be sailed until the following season, so a boat registered late 2001 may not have been first sailed until 2002. The condition of the hull, fittings, rigging, foils and sails will also be an indication of the boats use or how well it has been maintained and cared for.

Note: From 1998 to 2012 the boat was known as the ‘Laser 2000’ and the licensed builder was Performance Sailcraft Europe, subsequently trading as LaserPerformance Europe. From 2013 onwards the licensed builder is LDC Sailing and new boats will be marketed as the ‘2000’.
