Typhoon Fleet

The Typhoon fleet has an active racing schedule on the Rappahannock River, including a Spring and Fall Class Racing series and hosts the National Regatta and East Coast Championship in alternating years.  The Class also participates in PHRF racing at RRYC and neighboring clubs. You do not have to be a member of RRYC to participate with our racing and activities.  If you are interested in a Typhoon, there is a Typhoons For Sale page on this website showing boats available in our area.  The Wednesday night Spring and Fall racing series and other Typhoon related activities are listed in the Upcoming Events widget below.   

2026 Fleet Commander Kevin Stepko can be reached by email at sztopko@gmail.com or phone (703) 283 2754 if you have any questions or wish to participate either sailing or in race support activity.

Event Information


Event Description
All Cape Dory Typhoon owners and crew are welcome to come and compete in this six week series of Wednesday evening races. All Typhoon models (weekender, daysailor, open) compete as one class, without spinnakers, in a series of short races comprising Olympic, Triangles and Windward/Leeward legs at the discretion of the PRO.  We aim to have 3 races per evening.
The series will be scored in accordance with Section 9 of the RRYC Ty Fleet Rules.   The Series is also highly sociable with a Kick-off Evening with cocktails and a review of the Rules of Racing, mid-series events, and end of season dinner which includes prize giving.  Members also usually socialize informally after each evening's racing.
Only one registration is required for both the "Spring & Fall" Series.
