Cal 21
3 / 8 - score 43%
The Cal 21 is a 20.5ft fractional sloop designed by C. William Lapworth and built in fiberglass by Jensen Marine/Cal Boats between 1969 and 1972.
500 units have been built.
The Cal 21 is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
