Yacht Overview

Boat Overview

The Cape Dory Typhoon, “America’s littlest Yacht”, is one of the most popular sailboats ever built. There are more than 2,000 sailing from mountain lakes in the Rockies to the blue waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Caribbean.

The Typhoon is a joy to sail for beginner and expert alike. Carl Alberg designed her that way. The Typhoon’s “full keel”, with 900 Ibs. of molded-in ballast gives the Typhoon the feel of a larger boat, with the steadiness and stability not found in many larger designs.

Carl Alberg designed her with moderate displacement and ample ballast for exceptional stability under sail. Her huge, comfortable 6 foot cockpit is self-bailing. Roller furling jib and internal halyards leading to the cockpit combine for easy handling whether sailing with a crew or single-handed.

Below decks, the cuddy cabin contains forward V-berths, 2 quarter berths, and an area for an optional marine head and portable ice chest and stove, plus a surprising amount of storage space. She’s a great boat for overnighting and weekend cruising.

Equipped with n e-propulsion outboard that will get you away from the docks to raise your sails and back safely when you are back near the docks.
