Help to identify VaneM design please

Hi All

I am helping restore a VaneM from circa 1980 but we have little information to go on.   What I need to do is find the design of boat so that we can get a sailplan and make some rigs.   The rigs taht came with the boat are clearly not for the boat, so we need to start from scratch.

Boat is GRP hull with plywood deck and there are no marking on or under the deck to help further.

The vane feather carries the name "Hot Chocolate" but we should not assume for now that it came from the boat originally.

Anyone out there who could help with any info?

Also posting this on the Freesailing Forum.... sorry for the double post

 

Cheers

Wayne

 

PS, only positive comments about the state of my workshop please

Agree.  Nothing happening on the boat itself. 
 

it just needs some rigs and sails to match.  But which sails….

and as far as I know, the new owner wants it ready for May.  Wonder why :-)
