Calypso is a fine looking vessel. Its great that you have photos of your boat under sail. Its hard to get good photos out sailing. The Calypso Is sweet with a good size for coastal cruising. perhaps a bit to large for me to do alone. My C&C30 MK1 is just the right size for me " now" that may change when I retire and start cruising full time. Again... Great looking boat...
