What year? If the boat you are looking at is an older (Sopworth designed) Cal, and if your first priority is sailing performance, then you should not hesitate. Older Cals are well designed with bulletproof hulls. The flimsy hatches and other below deck accessories can be dealt with fairly easily.

Sorry that early Cal designer is C. William Lapworth, not Sopworth ,which I stated in a previous post.
