Hi Brookster,

Welcome to the forum. There are no serial numbers listed for the 640, but there were approx 400 built between 1972-78. There is a wealth of info and help on this forum, and the £5 one off fee for full membership helps keep it running, and gives full access to all the sections and the ability to post and view pictures. Hope you join us.

It looks like they built 50-60 boats per year so yours is probably '78
