Seller's Description

1985 Cape Dory Typhoon Senior Dorus Mor located in a slip in Ridge, MD in Southern Maryland.

The Cape Dory Typhoon Senior (22) is the larger version of the Typhoon and is a great day sailor and weekender with shallow draft that can go where the big boats cannot. The safe and seaworthy Carl Alberg design resembles that of the larger Cape Dory sailboats. The fractional rig is uncomplicated with sails easy to handle and an outboard motor that sits in a motor well protected from the elements while retaining a graceful stern profile. This Typhoon Senior has been very well maintained and has many improvements for comfortable weekend cruising. She has an extensive sail inventory for varying wind conditions in both light and heavy air. Below deck is a comfortable clean, interior with ample sitting headroom, and custom made cushions. The boat also includes a dual-axle sailboat trailer (MD titled/registered and passed state inspection) for off-season storage or transport to distance cruising areas. Current owner purchased her in 2005. Just launched in April 2020 with new bottom paint, located in Southern Maryland off the Potomac River. Ready for the sailing season!

Calculations

Hull Speed
5.5 kn
Classic: 5.44 kn

Hull Speed

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.

Formula

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

5.54 knots
Classic formula: 5.44 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
17.7
16-20: good performance

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

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.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
17.68
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
51.5
>40: stiffer, more powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

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.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

51.5
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
327.8
300-400: heavy

Displacement / Length Ratio

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.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
327.83
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
19.2
<20: lightweight racing boat

Comfort Ratio

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.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
19.23
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.0
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

Capsize Screening Formula

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.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
1.99
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Same hull as CAPE DORY 22.
