For Sale: Three (3) Sails for Typhoon. Main and 2 Jibs

Post by seriously4000 »

Three (3) sails for a Cape Dory Typhoon.
The sails are labelled 'Designed Exclusively for Cape Dory'.
$250 or best offer.

Mainsail:
luff: 21'
leech: 22' 10"
foot: 8'

Big Jib:
luff: 19'
leech: 18' 5"
foot: 10' 10"

Small Jib:
luff: 19' 3"
leech: 17' 3"
foot: 7' 3"

The sails have been used, but they are in good condition, and definitely have some life left to them.
There are no tears and the clews, the tacks, head grommets on all sails are solid.
The mainsail has the black "TY" lettering on both sides.
Both the jibs have jib hanks which are in excellent condition.
Someone either replaced them or cleaned them up because they are in fine shape and the springs work perfectly.
(BTW, used jib hanks are selling for $5 each on ebay & there are 15 here between the two jibs.)
The grommets that hold the hanks are sound and solid but do have some oxidation which is easily removed with white vinegar.

Shipping to 48 states should be ~$35.
PM me for more photos & close ups of clews, tacks, hanks etc

If you're willing to split up the set, I'd be interested in the genoa, as long as it doesn't too closely resemble washing on the line.
