Nice brass or bronze cam cleat. Were the Typhoons originally equipped with that? If so, I must be on at least the 3rd generation by now. I'm replacing the broken RWO with a Harken one (1-5/8" on center screw holes vs 1-1/2 - aarrgh!).

Hi Bob,

You ask about original equipment on the Tys. Through the years, original equipment changed. Newer models, newer changes.

I have a Ty Weekender that was built in the first year of production. It came from the factory plain vanilla, nothing fancy.

All of the exterior woodwork is teak. The cuddy bulkheads are teak veneer on 3/4" marine plywood. The slatted cockpit bench seats, hatch and companionway frame and splash boards are also teak. The interior woodwork is marine plywood.

There's not much metal hardware. Other than the aluminum mast, boom and spreaders, the horn cleats, tiller swivel, mooring cleat and chocks seem to be made of silicon bronze. I can't forget to mention the classic bronze alloy outboard motor bracket. No cam cleats. The sheets are secured by the coaming horn cleats.

The boat is so uncomplicated, it must have been the poster boat for "Sailing For Dummies". Hey, it helped me.

Aloha,
O J
