This
project boat is a William Tripp designed 38’ Javelin. It was built in
Holland in 1961 with a solid
fiberglass hull and a cored
fiberglass deck. It is a
full keel sloop that was originally designed as a minimum CCA off-shore
racer for the
Newport –
Bermuda race.
Currently, the
hull is completely stripped. The lead ballast
keel has been separated, inspected and reattached. Original
bronze hardware has been stored for reinstallation. The original mahogany
interior has been retained to either reinstall or use as patterns for a new
interior.
Much about the
boat can be learned from my website

I am letting go of this
project as my financial and
health picture has changed from my earlier plans. I would really like to see someone finish this worthy project and my
price of $1000 only reflects a desire to see a commitment toward completion, rather than scrap and
salvage.
