Re: Where to locate extra batteries on CD 28

Have considered replacing your flooded cell batteries with lithium ion? You would need to change the charger, but the energy density and available depth of discharge make them really attractive. I just replaced my ~600 watt hour lead acid house battery with a 1700 watt hour LiFePO4 in the same footp...

Re: Night on a CD 22

Chris,

I made a pair of halyard hooks that go over my spreaders. The main halyard and topping lift are hooked outboard when the boat is put away. I cut them on a bandsaw from a scrap of mahogany that I had. They have worked better than most of my ideas.

1985 Typhoon DaySailer - No Reasonable Offer Refused

I have owned this boat since 2007 and had no intention of selling, until another boat that I had my eye on became available. I now need to sell my TY DS to make room. This boat has been well maintained and needs nothing to use and enjoy. The rub rails were broken, and although I made replacements, I...

Naugus Typhoon

There is a Naugus Typhoon on Craigslist for $400. Located in Easthampton, NY. A little rough but it looks like it is worth saving.

Not mine

Re: Need Standing Rigging Specs Typhoon

You live close to both Dwyer Mast (Bristol) and Rigging Only (Fairhaven) - between the two you should be able to get what you need. I have the original standing rigging from my Ty DS that you are welcome to - the forestay is wrong but the other 5 should get you started.

WTB Jib Boom Pedestal

I want to convert my Ty DS to a self tending jib. While I have never seen one on a WE or DS I know that they were standard on the open model. I am having difficulty in finding a pedestal. If anyone has one that they are willing to part with or sees one in a consignment shop, please let me know. Rig ...

Open Typhoon with Trailer

Not mine, nor do I have any connection

Looks like a deal - selling for close to the value of the trailer

Another Interesting CD

From NH CL

Again, I have no connection

If ever there was a Ty WE deserving of some attention this would be it - if only I didn't have three other boats

Re: Shaft length for Typhoon Open Cockpit Daysailer

I have a Daysailer, but the cuddy not the open version. With the Spartan bracket 20" works well except if I am standing on the bow.

Re: New to List, Looking at Cape Dory Typhoon - Have Questio

I have a Typhoon Daysailer and had a Bullseye, which shares the hull with the H 12 1/2 made by Cape Cod Shipbuilding and is really close to the original wooden H 12 1/2s and Doughdishes. They are both great boats, more similar than they are different. - Bullseye - My Bullseye was as new, the nicest ...
