The Cape Dory Board

I replaced the forestay for my 1976 Typhoon. I went to Rigging Only - in the Cape Cod area - try their web page. I had excellent service and the price was as good as you can get. I will probably replace the backstay this winter. Just make sure that when you send the old ones that you send the entire...

What does the drain plug look like for the CD 10 - there is a broken chain in the cockpit of the one I just bought however there is a 1" (approx) hole through the bottom of the hull but the plug is mssing. Also - each flotation compartment has drain holes but no plugs - is this a standard item ...

I also purchased an older Ty that had sat in the yard for several Vermont winters Lok for possible wet core in the deck - especially around the hardware (they were poorly bedded at the factory. You might see cracks in the gelcoat radiating away from the wet core refelecting expansion as the wet core...

Beautiful looking boat! I painted one of my boats dark blue - striking with a lot of comments. Then I started to spend time inside it while cruising and realized how hot it was when the sun was on it. Never again will I have a dark colored boat! I painted my Ty Pettit Off White with Sand non-skid. S...

I have nothing but praise for Rigging Only - made lifelines for my umm C&C 34 - fit perfectly and new halyards and forestay for my Typhoon - perfect. Phone support was excellent as well. Very pleasant people and knowledgeable - highly recommended.

Where on Lake Champlain are you? I am at Malletts Bay Boat Club and recently rebuilt and launched my 1975 Typhoon! email me at aquarius@surfglobal.net for more info.

I have a similar problem on my Typhoon and am contemplating placing a narrow section of EPAY both above and below at the forward edge and one or two in the middle. I replaced the broken teak at the after edge with EPAY and it is really strong. Screw through from the bottom and you won't need bungs o...

Well - 2 years and one month of restoration and I have finally sailed my first Typhoon. Now I see why everyone is so excited about them. They are a beautiful lookin boat and are very resposive to the helm

I just purchased the Sanipottie 2.8 from West Marine - $49.99 and it fits perfectly in the space provided in the 1976 Typhoon. The kit even comes with 4 rolls of tissue and chemical.

:oops: I am currently in the final stages of refitting my rebuilt ty weekender and forgot how the backstay fitting attaches to the stern. The two forward bolts are ok but the two aft blts don't seem to have anyplace to go. Are these screws? Do the bolts go into a slanted hole? HELP - I want to finis...

What length water ski tow rope do you plan on using?

I have two Vee Berth cushions, one for over the porta potti and two cockpit cushions - fits 1976 typhoon. Blue with white piping in very good condition. Two quarter berth cushions need restitching and zippers. $215 takes all - you pay shpping (about $120)

A while ago (about 2 winters ago) there was a list of the number of Typhoons built in each year - since I had nothing better to do at the time I actually plotted the data on a graph - someday when I learn how to plot this graph on the nmessage board I will do so. Nevertheless your Ty # is about righ...
