Many thanks for making this available. It will help with my rebuild and maybe even inspire me to have a go at a new one.
Your gonna need a bigger boat !

I bought mine from them at the start of the lock down Will, they were away at the time living in France on their Sunseeker luxury yacht, but they had an employee looking after the shop until they returned. Maybe they decided not to bother opening again?

I thought they were.
Like I say SLEC sell a couple of Lesro kits, but will sell plans separately, I emailed them a couple of weeks ago and they told me that.
So Lesro Arrow will give you the right hull in both shape and length/beam.

Zooma/Bob, how long ago was that, because when I was searching for a plan for the Stiletto, everything pointed towards them being closed.
I could be wrong though.

If you want to buy a new printed plan for the Javelin, you could give LesRo model shop in Poole a call.
I ordered a new plan for my Rapier from them and they supplied it within a few days for £15 plus postage.

SLEC will sell you a Rapier plan, if that's of any use to you 200TDi.
As Bob and Harry have said, the hull is the same, just from the deck up that differs.

Alternatively, SLEC will sell you a Lesro Arrow plan, that's the Javelins' smaller brother of the same design.
You could then get that scanned and blown up to the same dimensions as a Javelin.

I've got a Javelin that I was gifted just before Christmas with a Enya 41 four stroke in it, it's a lovely boat - I'm after the plan so my friend and I can build another for brushless power 👍

I restored what was a really rough old Rapier some time during the first lockdown and have gained an appreciation for the excellent (unexpected) on-water performance of this larger LesRo hull.
At a later date, a fairly well used Javelin appeared on "the bay" at a good price that I also bought and restored.
I have not sailed the Javelin yet, but it should have the same sort of performance as the Rapier as they both have the same hull - only the superstructure is different.
Plans for both models are fairly easy to acquire (new and used)as well as the pdf downloads, but they are "kit plans" so they do not show any bulkheads or other parts that will need to be worked-out from the side elevation and plan views shown in these plans.

As Harry has just said, the three biggest LesRo boats (Rapier, Javelin, Streaker) share the same hull, and in fact the Javelin and the Streaker are actually the same boat!
The Streaker was renamed (for reasons unknown) after a successful production run as the Javelin, but the Rapier was never re-kitted and so is the rarer of the three as it never sold as well as the Javelin/Streaker.
