Founded by Al Nairne. Based in Vancouver, BC. During a visit to California, Nairne saw a CAL 20, and was so impressed that he made arrangements with Jack Jensen of Jensen Marine to build Cal boats in Canada. Calgan built some 300 Cals (20' 25' 28' 29'), and developed its own line of Crown/Calgan sailboats, at its plant on Crown Street in North Vancouver, BC.
