Layout and General Information
This 1980 Cape Dory Typhoon has a clean and solid hull and fiberglass deck
assembly along with just enough exterior woodwork toe rail and coaming to
highlight her sheer and low cabin profile. She is one of about 2,000 built between
1967 - 1986, Cape Dory’s most popular design. She sleeps 2 below on port and
starboard berths with cushions with nice wood trim below. Two fixed port lights
and a sliding companionway hatch for good natural light and ventilation. She
hasn’t been in the water for several years but has been under cover. Friday’s Child
comes with aluminum spars, stainless steel rigging, and a mainsail and jib, plus ample gear, and dock lines & fenders. She is a Carl
Alberg-designed sloop that sails very well at a very reasonable price!

Kathe grew up Southwest Harbor, Maine, in and out of her father's and grandfather's boat shops and on the water in various vessels. Sailing on inland lakes at camps and on the family boats out of Southwest Harbor were a large part of summers with family and friends. From the late '60s through early '80s, the family summer vacation was going to the Friendship Sloop Races in Friendship Harbor on their 1904 Friendship Sloop, Dictator, along with many sails with family and friends to island beaches. Kathe and her husband, Dan, live on Mount Desert Island and have five grown children and several grandchildren. They both are USCG Master Captains and enjoy working and sailing their Friendship Sloop around the nearby islands and in and out of harbors.
