Island Typhoon

Post by Mv-typhoon »

Got this typhoon for free this winter. Put a tremendous amount of time and work on her and it all payed off. Now she is floating on her new mooring waiting for the weekends. Here are some photos of before and after to help see where she came from. I think she came out beautiful.

Like all natural beauties, she cleans up well. Good job.

She looks great. Job well done!
Was that IPA part of the mess, or part of the clean up?

I just bought a Typhoon on Martha's Vineyard. I am refurbishing her now, mostly cosmetic, bronze fittings etc. I am so excited to finally have one!!
