Production as I see it is a boat that was built in a non-custom way in reasonably large numbers. Home built really shouldn't apply.
As far as Cal 40 and 46, the 46 is definitely a cruiser designed for offshore, but I don't believe the Cal 40 was designed for offshore cruising. In it's day (old shoe times) it was quite radical and has gone on travel far and wide but was really a racer/cruiser at first.
Gulfstar and Endeavour probably should be coastal, at least depending on model for Gulfstar.
I question the "lake" designation for most boats 30' or over. (Macgregors are under this length). O'day 30+ should be coastal, Lancer and Yorktown as well. I really don't know of any boats mentioned over 30' not designed for coastal cruising watching the weather.
Westsail was designed for offshore and marketed as such much like the Bristol Channel Cutter was more recently.
