Hi all Im Steve, new to the site and have a few questions to rack your brains!
I have posted a picture of my grandads old dory and I was wondering if someone is able to identify the make or model of dory. All i know is that it was bought from new in the mid 70s (1975 maybe) by my grandad.

Secondly I am trying to trace my dads old boat which was a flipper 535ht the last known reg number (if thats the right word!) was 31895 and was sold in 1995

and lastly can someone advise me as to whether the fletcher vigo is any good? and any infor, ads and disads of them.

Thanks

Looks very much like a "Dell Quay" to me! maybe 12/13ft ish?

It certainly looks like a Dell Quay Dory. If so there should be an identification plate on it. They are usually mounted on the inner face of the transom on the port side.
