Overview
About this vessel
This well-maintained 1976 CAL 3-46 Center Cockpit Ketch has been cherished by the same owners for the past 25 years and is now only in its second ownership.
She is a sea-kindly, long-distance bluewater cruiser, designed for comfortable and safe offshore passage-making. Easily handled by two people, she also serves as a very comfortable liveaboard vessel.
The cockpit is a very inviting place and an extending table can seat up to eight for dinner there. Note the lifting seat overhead the engine room.
Over her cruising life, she has sailed extensively along the U.S. West Coast, down to Mexico, and completed a Pacific crossing. In recent years, she has continued her voyages around Australia, as well as the scenic west coasts of Malaysia and Thailand.
She is currently berthed in Penang, Malaysia, and registered in Langkawi.
Accommodation
The interior features teak and holly sole throughout, with painted GRP finishes in wet areas. The master cabin is carpeted, while the galley and saloon are fitted with rugs for added comfort.
She offers two staterooms. The forward stateroom includes a double berth in the forepeak, while the aft master cabin is spacious and fitted with one single berth and one double berth, comfortably accommodating up to four adults in private cabins.
The saloon is well lit and spacious, featuring excellent headroom, integrated bookshelves, a large chart table, and ample storage beneath bench seating. The dining table is extendable and comfortably seats four or more guests.
Ventilation is provided by Hella fans installed in both staterooms and the saloon, ensuring good airflow throughout the interior plus a removable domestic aircon unit.
Galley
FORCE 10 3 burner stove with oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, stainless steel sink with hot and cold water.
Mast & Rigging
Ketch rig configuration with a deck-stepped mizzen mast and a keel-stepped main mast for added strength and offshore reliability.
The mizzen is supported by running backstays, enhancing sail control and balance under varying conditions. The main shrouds have been upsized for improved structural integrity and safety at sea.
A Profurl furling system is fitted to the foresail for ease of handling.
All halyards and control lines are led aft to the cockpit, allowing for efficient short-handed sailing and enhanced safety while underway.
