O'Day Javelin Sailboat Sales Information and Specifications (1966)

O'Day Javelin Designed by Uffa Fox

An exciting fourteen footer that will delight and please anyone with a flair for sailing a small boat.

Its unique design is truly a break from convention which puts special emphasis on stability, versatility, and roominess of cockpit.

Her generous beam (4' 6" at the waterline) is unusual for a 14' boat yet adds initial stability without harming performance.

The boat is so stable that a person can easily walk around without any fear. The cockpit is self bailing both at the mooring and underway and is roomy enough to hold 5 to 6 people.

Non-skid patterns are molded right into the cockpit floor and deck. Positive flotation (styrofoam) is placed between the cockpit floor and hull and gives safety buoyancy for both boat and crew.
