How Old?

HELP!!
After a long time laid up I'm finally getting my rib out on the water soon. I'm sorting out insurance and need to know how old it is, but can't find an ID plate anywhere. The boat is an Atlantic 21. Where do I look?

No idea but I doubt it will make a bugger of differance to cover - have a sensible chat with the broker / company and I'd say you will be fine with an educated guess.

On the transom between the two engines they might be a number printed into the gelcoat, contact Halmatic and they made be able to help?
Is it ex RNLI?

Thanks
Just had a good look but nothing

I don't believe its ex RNLI as I was told it was an ex North sea resue boat, and the rubbing strakes appear different, although it does have ex RNLI engines(?).
Spoke to an insurer today and they don't seem too worried about an exact age, "Built to last" was the expression used so waiting for docs and hopefully off I go!

Best off speaking to Halmatic, they might be able to help you better?
Any photos of it?

If I get problems with the insurance I'll try Halmatic, Nothing to lose I suppose. Slight issues downloading photos at mo but when resolved will put them on
