Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Calypso 14 is a lightweight, trailerable fractional sloop designed for easy transport and coastal cruising. Built by Calypso Sail Craft starting in 1980, this 13.68 ft vessel features a rotating spar rig and a displacement of 212.0 lb, prioritizing simplicity and low draft.

Best for:
This boat is ideal for single-handers or couples seeking a low-maintenance, trailerable day sailor or coastal cruiser that can be easily launched from a car.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 212.0 lb and a max draft of 0.62 ft, the Calypso 14 is strictly a coastal and day-sailing boat with no offshore capability.
Comparables:
Comparable to other 13-14 ft trailerable fractional sloops like the O'Day 14 or Microcruiser 14, it shares their emphasis on portability and simple fractional rigging for easy single-handed handling.
