I have just bought the boat the sail number is 1985 however the number on the hull is 2208 so not sure what to register it as.

The number 2208 should be carved into the thwart and that is the number of the boat rather than the number on the sails. Sails are much more easily transportable between boats that the carved numbers, and most probably the previous owner got hold of another suit and was using those.
