I just returned from spending the winter sailing in Biscayne Bay in the Florida Keys. This Typhoon handles the trade winds well. She gets up to hull speed easily in 5 knots of wind, and doesn’t complain in 20 knots of wind. Everywhere we went she turned the heads of sailors in larger boats. She comes equipped with:

Almost new jib
Very good mainsail
Used Genoa (needs repair)
Good spinnaker and pole
4 life vests
Rule Aqua Meter compass
Brand new Hawkeye D10D digital depth finder
2 batteries
Duel battery charger
2 cabin lights
V berth and cockpit cushions, excellent condition
Mainsail cover, excellent condition
Harken traveler
Boom vang
Manual bilge pump
Boat fenders

All exterior wood replaced and boat painted in 2009. New bottom paint February, 2012. To see photos of the restoration go to: http://kaldenbach.us/sailing/typhoon.html

Home built trailer. Ugly, but tows great. Tows at 75 mph with no swaying. Trailer has new bearings and bearing buddies. New lights. One tire is brand new & other tire is in good condition. Mounted spare tire included.
