Re: Storage/Moving Cape Dory 30/28 via Trailer
Pete, I have some photos which I took on my last travel adventure. The plans I have were done specifically for the Alberg 30. I wanted to be able to move her at will as well as have a safe and secure cradle for her while in storage. All has worked out as planned. Contact me with your e-mail and phon...

Re: 1971 Typhoon Weekender Hull #161 interested in new Home
# 276, Would you contact me via telephone so we can discuss your re-coring project? I haven't had any response from this Web Site with interest in the Typhoon. Perhaps folks are a bit put off by the re-coring which is needed. I have enough 3/8" balsa and Cousa (R) board to re-core everything. I...

Re: 1971 Typhoon Weekender Hull #161 interested in new Home
Hello # 276, Did you do the work from above or below? I was given the advice to cut the top deck off remove the balsa and then shore up the interior glass surface and do the re-coring. Several owners have done this work. While it is not rocket science it is time consuming. Once you know where all th...

Re: 1971 Typhoon Weekender Hull #161 interested in new Home
Hello, I am going to attempt to attach some photos of this Weekender. They should illustrate a very solid, fully galvanized, float off trailer and the condition of the Typhoon. The sails as described earlier are new or nearly new. I am interested in finding Sly Fox a new home. She can be sailed in h...

Re: 1971 Typhoon Weekender Hull #161 interested in new Home
Alan, You are correct on most points. This will be a labor of Love for someone to restore back to better than original glory. These boats are deserving of preservation and continued use. A good sailing boat never goes out of fashion. This is a good original boat with all the original features intact...

Re: 1971 Typhoon Weekender Hull #161 interested in new Home
Alan, Thanks for the reply. You are correct and I mistyped the balsa core thickness, it is 3/8". I was planning to re-core the entire deck and have enough material for that. I figured that once you begin why not do the entire boat? I was planning on using Cousa Board anywhere there was to be an...

Used CD Typhoon Sails

Mack typically uses black thread for stitching their sails does this sail have white or black thread? Does this sail have a leech or foot line or both? Where are you located re shipping cost. Sail bag?

Deck Recoring on Weekender
Thank you all who have responded. It appears as if all are using Epoxies to install the new coring material. Has anyone just used polyester resin to do this task? After all polyester was the original resin used for fabrication in the cored as well as uncored areas.
