Broker's Comments

Back on the Market, this well Maintained & Upgraded Center cockpit Ketch is looking for a discerning owner ready for a Cruising adventure. Full survey completed for Insurance purposes in 6.2023. Cal boats was founded by Jack Jensen and the yachts originally known as Lapworths, the first being the very popular Bill Lapworth designed Lapworth 24, the name was later changed to California and then shortened to Cal. The association between Jensen Marine and Bill Lapworth continued and the Cal 40 introduced in 1963 went on to become one of the most famous cruiser / racers of all time, and the very successful 1971 Cal 2-46 of which 95 were built reportedly Bill Lapworths favorite boat and one which he himself owned.
