Dwyer Mast
I had my first experience with Dwyer last week - what a great organization. I am restoring a non-CD and needed some parts - they had exactly what I needed and were easy to work with. I remember reading some concern on this forum regarding the viability of Dwyer once they became part of Zim. Have no ...

Re: Bedding compound on an '83 Typhoon
The coamings on my Typhoon were bedded with similar goop, I assumed that it was from the factory. After two days of effort i removed my already badly split coamings in pieces.

Re: Trailers and Boats
Given where you live, I would suggest a bullseye or doughdish. There is a lot of wind for a cat boat with one big sail.

Re: Typhoon chainplates
I have a 1984 Ty and the underside of my chainplates looked the same. There is some mention that the later CD used Al backing plates. When I last rebedded, I replaced the bolts with some known quality bolts from McMaster Carr and added a 6" x 2" x 0.25" SS backing plate. I would be mo...

Re: Replacement Coamings
Chris, Call St. Angelo hardwood in Tiverton (401-624-3900) before you make a decision - they are right off 24. They have mountains of teak, mahogany and most other exotic woods. When I first bought my Ty DS the coamings were covered in a really bad varnish job which I wanted to remove. They had been...

Re: Waiting CD22
It looks great. I have owned a bunch of boats and the only one that I regret selling was a CD 22 - one of the ones with a big ugly outboard hanging off the back.

Re: Waiting CD22
Is the outboard installed in the lazarette? I think that the 22 is the best looking CD, spoiled only by a big ugly outboard hanging off the stern. Cutting out the lazarette always seemed like a good idea. I remember that someone posted such a modification a few years ago.

Re: Typhoon daysailer
This is a deal. If I didn't already have one, I would drive down to Rye and pick it up.

Re: Cape Dory 25
I sailed by this morning - a nice looking boat. Didn't you just buy this and sail it up from CT?

Re: Dwyer Mast Closing
This might be old news, but Dwyer has been purchased and is still in business, although now in RI rather than CT. I was told that while RigRite was interested, they are not the new owner. Their intent is to carry on the Dwyer tradition and service.

Re: Weather boot for Typhoon day sailer
I don't understand the purpose of sealing around the mast . I have a boom tent that wraps the mast and keeps 95% of the water out of the cockpit. Several years ago I had a Bullseye which has a similar keel stepped mast and cuddy. Bullseye's commonly used putty between the mast and the cuddy, but its...
