A well-known name for performance yacht enthusiasts, Cal Boats was founded in 1956 as Jensen Marine Corporation. Derived from a pioneering figure in fiberglass sailboats, the sailing yachts constructed by Cal Boats have been most successful over a 43-year run producing just under 18,000 vessels total. Among the most popular sailing yachts were the Cal 25 and the Cal 40. Though Cal Boats went out of business in 1989, the company’s name remains a mainstay in sailing competitions.
