Finding other owners in Washington / Alexandria VA

Post by fknops »

I’m a relatively new typhoon owner looking to link up with other owners at the Washington Sailing Marina at Dangerfield Island. I see several other Typhoons in slips at this marina. I’ll be bringing mine up shortly. Let me know the best way to get in touch. Is there an owners group or racing group here? Many thanks…

Click on the flashing yellow banner at the top of this page to join the Cape Dory Sailboat Owners Association. The Chesapeake Fleet has a good number of Typhoon owners among their membership.

The Typhoon Nationals take place every year from the Rappahanock River Yacht Club in Irvington, VA. Typhoon owners come from far and wide to attend.

Thanks for all the replies. A related question -- My Typhoon is now at the Custom Yacht boatyard in Irvington VA, on my trailer. I would like to bring it up to Dangerfield Island (I have secured a slip) in Alexandria. Custom Yachts does not provide or arrange transport. Can anyone recommend a service that would do that? I'll also need help rigging the boat when it gets here.

Any referrals (or even proposals) would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Fred
