1983 Cape Dory Yachts Typhoon Weekender

1983 Cape Dory Typhoon Hull # 1933 for sale. This Cape Dory has been owned by only 2 families. Family #1 owned from 1983 to 2012, and I, from 2012 to present. Hull 1933 spent 29 years gently floating on a pin in Smith Mountain Lake VA & Lake Mendota WI - always winter stored inside. Since 2012, day sailed on Lake Michigan and returned to inside storage mast up. Again, winter stored inside. This boat has never been sailed in salt water. My goal was to restore Hull 1933 to like new condition. Im proud to say this boat and trailer will elicit complements whenever seen. Ive been told this boat belongs in a bottle; however, she is ready to sail by new owners. Port and starboard sides are brilliant white, deck is tan, boot stripe & custom-made Loadmaster trailer are a dark burgundy, the hull is racing bronze. All teak in excellent condition. Skip gas and sail a boat! Avoid costly slip fees and take advantage of day sailing. Links to YouTube sailing videos on request. All original manuals and documentation available.
