Boat History

Please enjoy this partial list of boats, manufacturers, and year the number was sold. The records in this format do not go back any further. Sandy Douglass built the first Thistle in 1945. Many of the early wooden boats are kit boats so keep in mind that the year the number was issued and the date the boat was built are not necessarily the same. The only dates on file are listed on the measurement certificate and so reflect when the boat was registered with the class not the date built. Those records are incomplete. Generally hull numbers built into the early 2000 numbers were first registered with the class by the late 1960's.
