Story of Javelin

Javelin, built in 1897 by the renowned British shipyard Summers & Payne, is a stunning example of a classic wooden sailing yacht. This majestic vessel is a ketch, featuring two masts. The ketch rig provides an excellent balance between stability and flexibility, making Javelin ideal for long voyages and comfortable sailing experiences.

Constructed during the golden age of yacht building, Javelin was the epitome of luxury and performance on the water, created for the elite who sought both speed and elegance. Summers & Payne, known for their master craftsmanship, designed Javelin to combine beauty with superior sailing capabilities.

Currently, Javelin is undergoing an extensive restoration. We are working meticulously to restore her to her original glory, preserving her classic lines and authentic character. Every detail, from the woodwork to the rigging, is being carefully renewed, with the goal of relaunching her in April, in perfect condition. After the restoration, Javelin will once again be ready to embark on new adventures at sea, continuing her rich legacy.

This is a unique opportunity to sail on a piece of maritime history, where craftsmanship and tradition meet modern luxury.
