My first mate Ann and I have comfortably enjoyed cruising Canada, eastern US coast and voyaged the Caribbean Islands. During that time we anchored every day except about 6 times. We found Fairwinds capable and easy to handle. Fairwinds never failed us and our trust was well founded. Our Living expenses were $500 per month in the Caribbean Anchored in front of million dollar homes and resorts. Health care was good and inexpensive.
1988 Cal 33 "Fairwinds". Fresh Water boat purchased in Michigan from the original owner. Hauled every year and stored on the hard until 2003. Converted it to a cruiser Added Lazy jacks, all the canvas and replaced all the cushions. Updated the Battery Bank to 525 Amps.
The heavy 8 hp outboard is held and deployed on the swim ladder using updated hinges. Added stern rail seats to give even more cockpit room Replaced all the waste hoses and added a overboard pump out.
Left Detroit in August 2003 and voyaged until 2005. Into the Eastern Caribbean, wintering in Trinidad and relocated to North Carolina.
Lived aboard until Mid 2006, sadly now Fairwinds is up for sale.
Also included Is a West Marine RIB dinghy and 8 HP Mercury Outboard both purchased new and used 2003 thru 2005.
Fairwinds is a Raymond Hunt design modern Tall Rig, high aspect racer cruiser. The engine is properly sized to the hull and the boat was designed to AYBC standards.
Cals are not to be confused with light production boats as Beneteau’s, Catalinas and Hunters. In fact a Cal won the Newport to Bermuda Race this year.
