Re: How to derive the Hull # from the HID?

In 1979, were the boats being built in East Taunton, MA?

Thanks

Cape Dory 10 Mooring Cover questions

I'm curious to know if anyone has the mooring cover offered by CD, or an aftermarket cover. I'd like to rig one on my boat. I'd like to find out how the center is propped up to keep rain from gathering. I have seen dinghies with flexible planks running athwartships which bend slightly upwards to pus...

CD 7' Dink in Maine

Not mine. Don't know the guy. Never seen one before and thought someone here may be looking.

Re: Early Naugus Alberg Typhoon

As Carl Alberg lived in Marblehead, I am guessing that Naugus Head was the namesake for the boat/production company in Salem.

Re: *SOLD* Extremely Rare Naugus Typhoon Open Daysailer #22

Do they let you race with the Typhoon fleet? Do they fly chutes in the big OD race every other year? Would you happen to have any pictures of yours with the kite up? Gorgeous boat!

Not mine, but I know how hard it can be to find a trailer when you need one.

Re: How to derive the Hull # from the HID?

Jack: That hull number embedded on the stern is pretty definitive evidence that you have CD 10 Hull # 2224 mfg. in 1979 (probably June). Assuming the total number of CD 10s is accurate (or close) then you have one of the last CD 10s built and it was in 1979. As mentioned, given the above facts, it ...

Re: Lot's of Fresh Varnish

Looks like a nice CD10 on your port quarter. Would you happen to have any more pictures of that?

Re: How to derive the Hull # from the HID?

I went down a similar thought path. I was thinking that maybe they were not turning out as many dinghies at the end? The HID character in question is the last one. The top of the last digit is worn. It could be 'K' or 'R', but 'R' was not listed as a possible character under the format. Sadly, I don...

Re: How to derive the Hull # from the HID?

Jack: According to another section of this board (Cape Dory History), there were 2260 CD 10s mfg. between 1964-1983. Your hull number 2224 would be one of the very last CD 10s built by Cape Dory Yachts circa 1982/1983. It's funny, there is a Typhoon here in town named "The Last Typhoon." ...

Curious to know how your restorations turned out. I am fixing up an old CD10 at present.

Re: How to derive the Hull # from the HID?

Very helpful. Thanks!

I checked this against a Typhoon in a boatyard down the street. The HID and the number on the builder's plate correlate to the formula that you shared.

So it would seem that I have CD10 number 2224.
