Used Cal 27 Sailboats for Sale

The Cal 27, designed by the prolific naval architect C. William "Bill" Lapworth and built by Jensen Marine (later known as Cal Boats), stands as a quintessential example of the accessible performance cruiser from the early 1970s. Introduced at a time when fiberglass construction was revolutionizing sailboat manufacturing, the Cal 27 aimed to offer a lively sailing experience combined with comfortable accommodations for coastal cruising and club racing. With a production run spanning from 1971 to 1974 and 306 hulls built, this compact monohull quickly earned a reputation for being solid, well-built, and easy to handle, embodying the Cal brand's commitment to robust construction and exhilarating performance.
