Bought a 1988 Javelin. It is 17' but do not know what model it is. Does this look familiar to anyone?

Have you got previous owner's name on title?
Or was it transfered to that organizations name before hand?

I have the owners name,but don't know if it is on the title, or Boat Angel. I will have to check when I get home from work. You recognized the boat?

From ebay.
If you have owners name, contact them and maybe they would know the model number.
If you don't have the owners name, maybe able to find out through the VA. number on the side of boat.

Bingo.
The owner = 0 help.
Funny, when I asked some questions before I drove 500+ miles to pick it up. I got some unhelpful answers.
What size is the ball hitch? ( so I had the right one) answer: About 3 fingers wide.
What size are the wheels(so I could bring a spare & new bearings) Answer: about the size of my steering wheel.
Anyway, I'm learning and still enjoying working on it!
Thanks again SBN.
