Here's a sweet deal on a Typhoon for someone with a trailer (it's not my boat - I just noticed it on Craigslist): http://providence.craigslist.org/boa/4729847194.html

This may be one of those ads to be careful with. I notice several grammatical errors in the ad, and no registration numbers on the hull. Maybe a good deal, but proceed with caution.

The ad does state there's no motor.

For what it's worth, I'd seen that one and another in the RI area for sale for a long time. I'm very leery of some of the postings of these Typhoons because of the dates of the Ads and that often the Webmasters do not clean up the listings. Thus, some listings are quite out of date.

Did anyone notice the missing bow-plate on that particular Ty? A redo and the decision made to forego an authentic bowplate?

Ho hum.
