Ty and CDSOA in Sailing Magazine
The June issue of Sailing Magazine features Typhoons in two articles -- and also gives a nice plug to CDSOA. The magazine's "Technique" column is about brightwork, and includes a photo of the author's beautiful weekender "Merlot." "Used Boat Notebook" devotes two full pages to the history, performance characteristics and general merits of the Typhoon and includes a photo of "First Light," my Ty daysailer ':)'. The article refers interested readers to CDSOA, and to Noel Peattie's "Typhooner" newsletters archived on this website.

Speaking of sailing rags....
Both Realization (CD32) and Evening Light (CD33) will appear on the cover of the July issue of Northeast Boating magazine (not at news stands yet). Look for Joe Myerson's article inside.

I received my copy of Sailing magazine yesterday. As Joe said, there are two great articles referencing Cape Dorys.
The brightwork article is excellent, at least for a "tadpole" like me. I have read a few articles by its author, Ralph Naranjo. I seem to recall he did an article in some sailing magazine about checking the "chainplates" on Ty Weekenders because of soft metal degradation. One of his lower shrouds pulled out during a sail
The two page article on Cape Dory Typhoons by John Kretschmer is terrific. Thankfully, I bought Tadpole before this article came out. If I had read this article and then negotiated for Tadpole I probably would have ended up throwing money at the seller just to own my Ty
Of all the excellent information in the article, the one that stuck out was the paragraph that answered my question in another post I made on this board concerning the purpose of the two fairleads on the deck just aft of the chainplates. According to Mr. Kretschmer at page 43, "The headsail tracks are mounted on the coachroof for the jib and there's a fixed-point lead on the side deck for larger headsails."
I am "assuming" a "fixed-point lead" is a immobile fairlead permanently attached.
Anyways, two great articles. For those who do not yet subscribe, I get several sailing magazines and each has its good points, etc. However, for what it is worth, in my opinion the mag with the best pictures is Sailing

Dixon
I'm not sure where you can get a copy in MD or VA, but here's a link to the Northeast Boating Magazine web site. If you send one of the editors an email, maybe they can help you out. But you can definitely subscribe online.

Hope this helps,

Correction and other info
DISCLAIMER: Please don't consider this to be a plug for my magazine. If the webmasters consider it as such, feel free to remove it.
Cathy, Dixon et al:
The magazine in question hasn't been printed yet, and my article is still being written. All we've got so far is the choice of a cover photo (with cover-person Cathy M. on the cabintop, no less!). Copies of the August issue will be available around July 15.
The web address that Cathy gave might still work, the the correct web address is:
http://www.northeastboating.net
And, Dixon, you might contact the folks at Chesapeake Bay Magazine about getting a copy--we're sister publications with corporate headquarters in Annapolis. If that doesn't work, send me an e-mail with your mailing address, and I'll send you a copy.

Re: Ty and CDSOA in Sailing Magazine
And to think I had a sail on her at last year's Essex rendezvous! She is a beauty and fits well with all the other classics in your marina. Congrats for hitting the big time.Joe Montana wrote:" "Used Boat Notebook" devotes two full pages to the history, performance characteristics and general merits of the Typhoon and includes a photo of "First Light," my Ty daysailer ':)'.

Any hope of getting copies of these TY articles
I can not find these articles, even in the tables of contents of the magazines. Any hope of getting a photocopy or pdf version?
Thanks in advance,
DC

i was telling my girl friend Vija about the Typhoon while stuck in traffic on the way up to Block Island from Brooklyn. i couldnt shut up cause that sad one for 10$ was on ebay(sold for 350ish$) and i had just spent days looking it up. i flicked open Sailing Mag right to that page without knowing it! i read bits of it to her as she drove and then when she was hooked i read it to her start to finish making sure to go over the graphics when stopped. nice right up.
