I believe that it was Lear Siegler Marine in Falls River, Mass... That's where my 86 was built.

Hummm, it just dawned on me that my Cal31 is hull #75 built in 79 and your's is #59 also in '79. Rough est of two boats a month minimum for the 31s? add in all the others being built and that's a lot of work! Wait a minute! My month of mfg is July! So they laid 24 hulls in two months? Somebody help me here with the cure time and how many forms would they need to do this.

My HIN is CABF0094M80B, which should have been Cal 31 #94, manufactured in Sept. of 1980. I don't know how it relates to Cals, but there were two numbering systems in use between Oct. 31, 1972, and August 1, 1984. The differences concern the last 4 number in the VIN. Another system is used for hull nos. after August 1, 1984.

BANGOR PUNTA bought JENSEN MARINE in 1965, so all CALs built from 1965 to 1985-6 were built by a Bangor Punta owned company, LEAR SIEGLER bought CAL/O'DAY in around 1985-6 and owned the company until about 1988 or so when a group of investors bought the company only to go bankrupt in 1989. Lear Siegler also bought the Starcraft boats division of Bangor Punta, and the CAL/O'DAY part was actually called "Starcraft Sailboats" Division of Lear Siegler for a while.
