    The O'Day Javelin is a 14' daysailer designed by Uffa Fox built by the O'Day Company. It is a very easy boat to rig and sail. The Javelin is a great family boat, or can be singlehanded quite easily. An active yahoo owners group is a quick resource for upgrades and tips.

    This sailboat is clean and in very good condition and ready to sail today. The boat has some minor surface crazing and cosmetic chips in the gelcoat, what 30+ year old boat doesn't? The hull is sound, water tight, and sails great.

    Contact Brad with any questions or additional photos.

    The Javelin has been sold. A nice young couple drove all the way from Alamogordo, NM and picked it up this morning. This really shows that your ads work, not only in Texas! The boat was only listed for 5 days. Thank you so much for what you do. Brad.
