The Cape Dory Board

I know it doesnt need much, but I wanted to get something I could use for other things also. A two cylinder 4 stroke is so quite.

I am thinking of getting a 10-15 HP 4 stroke, long shaft for my Typhoon. Weight should be anywhere from 85 to 120lbs. Has anyone out there done this? Will the transom handle it (I have a good backing plate), and is that too much weight that far aft?

I called JSI, and they wanted $930 for cushions, and that was using stock fabric and grade B foam. They said your price must be incorrect. Can you verify info?

Thanks huskerden@ev1.net

I would probably take all, except sails

I need all three compartment covers that go under the cushions on a Typhoon Weekender. Can I buy these anywhere, or will I have to make them? There is not much of a flange for these to rest on, so the would have to be pretty precise if I make them, plus they would need to be pretty thin to be flush....

Anyone know where I can get toe and rub rails? The guy and Mystic Marine hasn't returned my calls.

I am in the process of buying a Typhoon. The top portion of the rudder, is somewhat loose. You can pull on it and see a very slight gap where is connects to the brass pinion. Is this a concern, and what could be done about this?
