Broker's Comments

The Javelin 30 design was based on a RORC 1/2 ton prototype and was a popular and successful cruiser racer in the 1970's. There are still a few to be found in the club handicap fleets and they are known to sail well (as the pretty hull shape denotes).

This one has recently fallen on hard times and although she was completely refitted in 2010 she now needs some love to put her back together again. She is in a good yard and the engine is out and inside, she appears complete and solid but nothing has been tested so viewing is recommended
