ballystick 72 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 I couldn't find any photos with the square-top, but this one shows the main sail cloth material. The new owner has passed away unfortunately and I'm trying to help his widow with it's sale or disposal. Link to post Share on other sites
benny14 6 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I have no idea what these are worth... But roughly what are you looking for? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 That's sad to hear. I'll see what I can find to help out...I've got some in the achive somewhere I think. I know what I sold the boat for...and that in my opinion was a steal for the amount of excitement these boats deliver. No doubt some tidy up work has been done. but it was in pretty good order when I sold it.. The most important thing for the class is for someone active to get hold of it and get out there and mix it up with some other Jav's. Link to post Share on other sites

Marshy 30 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 There were a couple from memory sailing from Evans bay when we had the 12footer nationals last year i think? Or were they cherubs? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 better to go for a 12 ft skiff Benny , small fleet at worser bay, heaps more fun than a young 88. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 3 Javelins sailing out of Evans Bay, Nationals to be held in Wellington late Jan/early Feb next year. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Adding some pics for you. These ones are prior to when I replaced the Genny Chute with the newer larger chute- which made getting it back in MUCH easier. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Updated Chute tube. Painted the front decks white at this point due to the additional Fiberglassing that was needed to fit this. Boat did have quite a nice fitting canvas cover. Might be getting a bit old now. Link to post Share on other sites
