The Cal T/2 represents a fascinating chapter in the evolution of the American "racercruiser" during the early 1970s. Designed by the legendary C. William "Bill" Lapworth and produced by Jensen Marine, the T/2 was a direct response to the burgeoning International Offshore Rule (IOR) and the specific popularity of the Quarter Ton class. While it shares a hull lineage with the original "poptop" Cal 27, the T/2 was engineered for structural rigidity and competitive performance, shedding the cruisingoriented lifting roof in favor of a fixed, lowprofile deckhouse that could withstand the rigors of offshore racing.
