s/v Scotch Mist

From the brochure:

The Cal 29 yacht now offers complete cruising features and accommodations for the sailor who wants to put some real blue water miles behind him.
Standard equipment includes a diesel engine, a fully enclosed head with pressurized shower, a full-size stand-up galley, and pedestal steering. The CAL 29 yacht is big.
She offers complete accommodations for six, with full standing headroom in both the main and forward cabins. And her layout is designed for comfort and convenience on a long cruise.
With all her cruising advantages, the CAL 29 yacht is still one of the fastest 29-footers in the water. Her under body features a fine entry for seakindliness. And she balances and tracks beautifully on all points of sail.


This was the description in the 70’s and it still rings true today. She is big, and fine and a pleasure to be on.

Scotch Mist is a first generation Cal 29. The designer is Bill Lapworth, and the builders were Jensen Marine in California and Calgan Marine (Crown Sailboats) in North Vancouver, BC.

About Me

Look through my eyes for one brief second…

I am a sailor.

All the other stuff I could say about myself really isn't important…
