To be honest, you'll not find fast or slow boats. It's really what condition is the hull, foils, spars and especially the sails.
I'm sure the owners can advise you on these, otherwise ask for photos, or better still take a look at the boats.

212 is at blackwater. It is in good condition and has a new kite still in the bag. John Simpson at uk dinghys has done some work on it recently. I'd say it was a good buy.

I am happy to take a look at the boat for you, and give you a report.
Drop me an e-mail if you'd like me to proceed.

I think firstly I should try the boat before I look into purchase one... this would either be at Minorca next summer or.... at Datchet. But I would like to go out on a light wind day if possible
