The Cal 2-46 represents a significant departure from the racing pedigree that defined Jensen Marine’s early years. While the company built its reputation on the blistering performance of the Cal 40, the Cal 2-46 was conceived as a "sailing machine" for the long-range cruiser who prioritized livability and mechanical reliability over podium finishes. Introduced in the early 1970s, this Bill Lapworth design challenged the contemporary definition of a motorsailer by providing a hull that could actually perform under sail, rather than merely acting as a powered barge with a token rig. It remains one of the most respected center-cockpit cruisers of its era, often cited for its ruggedness and "shorthanded-friendly" deck layout.
