Cape Dory Yachts introduced the Typhoon in 1967 based on a 1960 design by the late Carl Alberg. It became the cornerstone of the company’s line of conservative, sensible cruising sailboats: (many also designed by Alberg), and remained in production until 1985. More than 2,200 boats were built. The Typhoon is a full keel design with a yacht rather than dinghy like profile and seems larger than she actually is; although, dimensions are a mere 18’ 6″ LOA, 13’ 11″ LWL, 6’ 3″ beam and 2’ 7″ draft. Displacement is a healthy 1,800 to 2,000 lbs, depending on the model.
