My son just acquired a venerable, yet seaworthy O'Day Javelin. Things look OK, but we need a drain plug and two spreaders. What is a good source for parts for Javelins? Thanks for any help?

Peter, You should be able to source both of these pieces locally. What does the socket for the drain plug look like? You may find a suitable insert at your local marine store. There are some biggies in Burlington. As for the spreaders, are they missing entirely or are they damaged? If you know how long they need to be you can source them from any rigger or from most marine stores, again at worst a trip to Burlington. If you need to know the lengths, maybe someone on the list here will measure them and let us know? Justin - O'day Owner's Web
