18.6' Cape Dory Typhoon

Our little yacht is being put up for sale and we believe the next owner will love sailing her as much as we have. Everything is in sailing condition from the standing rigging to the running rigging (boom vang, adjustable back-stay etc.), North Sails sail inventory (sail ties and reefing lines etc.), newer outboard 4-stroke engine for auxiliary power (can remain on the motor mount for fresh water flushing after use which we do every time). The hull, deck and cockpit are in great shape although not without the usual blemishes (bottom will need new paint though). The small but effective cabin has all of the cushions in great condition (4, full-length sleeping berth cushions), a Porta Potty (never been used), paddle, boat hook, auxiliary 5 gallon gas tank with hose, and too many other extras to list. The cabin top and mast are supported below by a stout, varnished 4x4 support brace running down to rest on the keel. The wood and trim pieces (rub rails, companionway hatches, tiller etc.) will need some attention but should be an easy and maybe even a fun project if you have the time. The Cape Dory (not just our opinion see links below) is a coveted design by Carl Alberg and there are only so many of them out there for sale, so if you are in the market, we would encourage you to consider exploring this option. We are happy to answer any questions you may have.

For a little background, we co-own this little gem of a sailboat (both families have owned many sailboats of all sizes over the years we have raced and cruised etc.) but our children have gone off to college and alas, she is not leaving the slip very often. Someone should take the baton and take her out more than we do.

Lastly, please note that our Cape Dory is in a slip in Sausalito, CA and there is no trailer available.
