Notes:
A completely new design replacing the CAL 24 that Bill Lapworth had turned out in 1958. It is the first in a line of what Lapworth himself called his 'finer-bow' models which (according to him) had a slight advantage sailing to windward in a seaway.
Designer
- C. William Lapworth (1919–2006)
Builders
- Bangor Punta Corp. (1964–1984)
