The Cal 39 Mk II, introduced in 1978, represents a sophisticated evolution of Bill Lapworth’s design philosophy, effectively bridging the gap between the raw athleticism of the legendary Cal 40 and the refined comforts required by the burgeoning performance-cruising market of the late 1970s. While Jensen Marine had previously produced a Cal 39 between 1970 and 1973, the Mk II (often referred to simply as the 1978 Cal 39) was an entirely new hull and deck design. Built during the Bangor Punta era of ownership, this model was intended to compete with the likes of Bristol and Tartan, offering a robust, offshore-capable platform that maintained the "easy to sail" reputation established by earlier Lapworth designs.
