Congratulations for a group effort (H.Spruit, DAZZLER, and RAGTIME) in answering the design trivia quiz, above.
The correct answers are: LORD JACK is a Cal T/2 Half Tonner, designed by Bill Lapworth in 1971 to the IOR Rule, The T/2 is similar in design to the original Cal 27, which had a pop-top house rather than the fixed house and 5' 8" standing headroom mandated by the IOR Half Ton rule.
Jackie's DURA MATER, a Cal 2/27 designed in 1973, is closely related to the Cal T/2, but has 4" more beam, 5" less waterline, and weighs about 1,300 pounds more.
The pretty little blue boat is Tom Carr's Mirror Offshore 17 BLUEBIRD, designed by van de Standt, designer of STARBUCK and MIRAGE. Tom sailed BLUEBIRD in the 2015 Baja Ha Ha, then trailed north from Cabo San Lucas. He will do the trip again this year, as the Baja Ha Ha committee has again given Tom's well prepared BLUEBIRD an exception to their minimum 27 foot overall length requirement.
