As with all Cape Dory sailboats, initial stability is low due to the champagne glass shape of the hull and these boats are considered tender by modern standards. But, the more they heel the more stable they become and it's ultimate stability that is most important. The capsize risk of the Typoon is 2. (Any number equal to or less than 2 is ideal -- the closer to 0 the better.) This is excellent stability for a boat her size. The Typhoon is a safe, seaworthy craft.

To learn the capsize risk (and other factors) of other Cape Dorys visit:
