This
is the online home of Gangfurd
(photos below), an original 1965 Cal 28 raised deck sailboat,
hull number 82. Her former name was Pirate. While
this site is dedicated to the original California 28, popularly
known as the Cal 28, designed by Bill Lapworth, it is also a celebration of all Cal
Boats (click link to see them all). Scroll down the page
for links to all Cal Boat models. Cal 28s were originally
manufactured by Jack
Jensen at his Jensen Marine Corporation. Jenson Marine
was famous for its Cal brand boats. The company’s boats in 1965
were: The Cal
20, Cal
25,
Cal
28, Cal
34, Cal 36 and, of course, the Cal
40—literally
a hall of fame lineup. With her fin keel, spade rudder and lightweight,
the Cal 28 was the proto-type for the the radical rudder and
fin keel on her larger American Sailboat Hall of Fame sister, the Cal
40. The Cal 28 was the first Lapworth design to
incorporate the spade rudder. The Cal 28 took on and beat all
comers when she was introduced. See original
sales advertisement. The Cal 28 once completely
dominated the racing world. Here are the Cal 28 original
specifications. See just the specifications
here.
"We did that on the 28. We wanted to do it before we went
ahead and put the tooling into the 40-footer," according to Bill
Lapworth.

The
Cal 28 is a true classic
racer/cruiser. The choice of true sailors and collectors who
can't afford a Cal 40, the Cal 28 is fairly rare in captivity.
If you owned, or are the current owner of a Cal 28, we would
love to hear from you. We would also
like to receive any photos you have of a Cal 28, including any
original documentation that came with the boat when purchased new.
The original raised deck
Cals were the Cal
20, the Cal 2-24, the Cal
25, and the Cal 28. Apparently, there was also a single Cal 40 raised deck made, the famous White Squall.
Cal Boat owners and others are invited to submit log entries about Cal
Boats to our Sailing Log. See
Cal Boat brochures and manuals here.
