I know a guy in Oside, CA that sailed a Cal 20 around the world in the 80's. It had that fake grass carpet glued to the decks and .5" marine ply boards to cover the windows in case of bad weather <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />. The boat was still in Del Mar Marina last time I knew. The thing was beat! The Cal 20 was built for a weekend cruise to Catalina Island at best, not an around the world voyage.

Some guys just get lucky.
