We are new. We have owned our Cal 39 for less than an year. I don't care what platform we use to talk together. Facebook, yahoo.... myspace (if it's even alive still). Cal Sailboats and those who own them is what I'm interested in.
We bought an 83 Cal39 MKIII that is at best needing. We are bringing her back to life and her..... us. I've been working on her almost a year now. Rotten deck cores and bulkheads, but as I work away the more I love what I find. You see, I've done this many times with all sorts of boats. But this girl is special. These boats.... CAL's are special. I'm finding the details and the hand made specialness.
I don't care how I find those that realize this.... We just want to.

Hi Jeff & Sandi,
Welcome aboard the Cal List. I see you are from the Panhandle. We have had our Cal 46 for 36 years, the last 21 by our home on Bayou Chico. We have neighbors with a Cal 40, 25 & 21.. When you have time, drop a text and we will have a Bayou Chico Cal Boat gathering .572-1225. I have a business rebuilding boat diesel engines, particularly Perkins 4.108's.

I've got a Cal 20. In making a prior reply, I had just walked over to
my three-ring binder boat collection. Under "my boats" I found my Cal
20 info, including a piece from /Practical Sailor /from 1991. It was
the 30th anniversary of the Cal 20, you see, and they wanted to honor
the little boat. How many consumer products get 30th birthday
write-ups, anyway? My boat isn't perfect. I can show you many
deficiencies. But she's a sweet little vessel anyway, well designed
for sailing and built with enough care that she's still sailing 50 years
after she came out of Jensen Marine's shop.
