Yes, Calypso was “Esta Es” from the Chicago area. The owner of Esta Es was Gene McCarthy. IIRC, Gene is the current holder of the record for participating in the most Chi/Mac races. I believe Esta Es raced in 4 or 5 Chi/Macs. She likely did a few more in the late 70’s and early 80’s as “Phantom” out of the Green Bay Area.
When commissioned in January 1971 she was named “Arieto”. When not racing in the SORC she was based in the Boston area. Martin On Jul 4, 2025, at 11:02 PM, Ronald B.

If so, I toured it after a Chicago-Mac race.

Calypso's new owners are very enthusiastic and experienced. One of them grew up on the Great Lakes and has always wanted a 43. Calypso will stay in the Port Townsend WA area. The new owners have mostly local and coastal sailing planned. I promoted becoming cnc-listers several times so maybe they will pop up. I do have a 2.2oz wire luff, storm spinnaker (70's vintage, low miles) in storage that the new owners did not want/have room for. If any C&C listers are interested it's free, you pay the shipping. I do wish to stay active with the cnc-list email group as a "heritage" member even though my current boat is a classic wood hulled powerboat.
