This Typhoon was a one owner from 1985 to 2013 and sailed only in fresh water at Lake Oneida, New York. The original owners manual, brochures and receipts beginning in 1985 remain with this typhoon. In 2013, it was sold and trailered to a fresh water lake in Ohio where the restoration began. I purchased the Typhoon in 2014 and completed the restoration in 2018. It has anti fouling paint for salt water on hull bottom. Upper hull was cleaned thoroughly with specified solvents prior to applying three coats Interlux Interprotect 2000 E two-part epoxy primer and three coats Interprotect 2000 E two-part epoxy finish coat, all sanded in between coats. Its been moored and sailed in Rockland Harbor for two weeks only for three summers total of 6 weeks in salt water. I use a high-powered pressure washer to wash the hull and trailer after removal from salt water. The boat registration numbers and the lettering on the stern are stick on and since I applied them new in 2018, they may easily be removed without a trace by heating them with a hair dryer on a warm day.
Trailer was custom made for owner and is in excellent condition with all new wiring, lights and new heavy-duty trailer tires. It includes an 8 foot plus tongue extension and a new 3500 pound rated reversible hand winch. Also has a self-raising mast extension that clamps to trailer winch frame for one person to easily raise and lower mast. The axle is designed so that disc surge brakes may easily be added. The trailer tows very easily at highway speeds and I found it not necessary to have brakes installed when I tow it with my pickup truck.
Also includes: New (2017) Honda 2.3 HP four stroke outboard motor with extended shaft and less than 2 hours use. (no need to mix oil)
Equipment: Comes with two main sails, sail cover for boom, a working jib, spinnaker and 150 percent Genoa. Includes anchor, lines, cockpit and cabin cushions, slide in panels for porta potti or storage, mooring gaff, air horn, four fenders, lock for cabin, cable lock for motor.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
The DAYSAILER model has a slightly larger cockpit than WEEKENDER.
With nearly 2000 built, this was Cape Dory’s most successful model.
