Cal 39 Displacements

Does anyone know what changes were made to the Cal 39 that resulted in a 4600lb weight gain from 14,400 to 19,000 lbs? Our '80 MK lll is noted as having a displacement of 19K when earlier models were 14, 400lbs, Mine may be another displacement altogether as it was a one-off boat show model with a tweener draft of 6'. Just curious - Paul West Adventure Kwest '80 Cal 39

Paul, I have the marketing brochure for the Mk2 and Mk3 and both show a displacement of 17,000 lbs. I also have a copy of Lapworth's plans for the Mk2 dated 3 September 1976 and they list displacement of 17,000 lbs. Where are you getting these other numbers?

Wayne, highest weight on Bacon Sails is 17500. Lowest is 14600. Hunt boats a little heavier than the heaviest Lapworth. http://www.baconsails.com/database/boatspec.php Cheers Charlie From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Wayne Gillikin Sent: Thursday, August 27, 2009 1:24 PM To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Cal_Boats] Cal 39 Displacements Paul, I have the marketing brochure for the Mk2 and Mk3 and both show a displacement of 17,000 lbs.
