Restoring a Cal 27 -need info,specs

[Matt]

I came into a deal for a free Cal 27 - I had to get it out of a barn! It needs quite a bit of work - engine, tiller, some hull repair, rigging, and interior. I need detailed specs and any helpful info/sites that could help me. I really appreciate it.

Absolutely

Congratulations on your find, Cal owners are a dedicated lot. Don't mean to detract from this list but the best help you will get is to join the very active email circle of Cal owners on Sailnet. Go to Sailnet and enter yourself on the Cal-list to receive a stream of Cal chatter and be able to ask questions. Also learn from the pictures and project boats connected to this group. Which model 27 is it and what were the circumstances? What water will you be in?

Cal 27

There are 3 Cal 27 models Matt.The first was a flat foredeck model which was later fitted with a small bump up for headroom in the main cabin.The second and third models had a more traditional cabintop that extended the headroom through the head area. By now you should have Googled a lot of info about your boat via the WWW.
