Cal 44

The Cal 44 came from the pen of C. Raymond Hunt and Associates and was way ahead of its time with a design that included a very strong offshore hull with excellent sailing qualities, a very spacious cockpit with great views and controls for short handed sailing, a bright and airy interior with large main salon windows and two large cabins with heads that each have stall showers, and a walk off stern that was a revolution for its time.  This boat has been well maintained by her present owner and has been sailed extensively on the US Coast and the Bahamas.  Please call today for an appointment to see this luxurious cruising vessel.
