What sets Caliber apart from the fleet of her rivals? Is it her swiftness? Her seaworthiness and durability? Her exceptional stability and comfort? As Caliber owners know, it is the artful combination of these qualities, which enables a Caliber to perform beyond the limits that constrain so many others.
This 2005 Caliber 40LRC SE meets all those expectations. The 40LRC SE has standard features like Water Tight Collision Bulkhead, Water Rudder Dam, Caliber Smart Electrical System, Caliber Smart Fuel System, Convertible Cutter Rig and much more.
The Caliber 40 LRC SE "Lost Loon" represents the latest model in the time-tested Caliber 40 LRC SE series.
“Lost Loon” is set up for long distance sailing and live-aboard comfort. She is fitted with a large fridge/freezer, propane stove and lots of storage space. With a large forward offset berth and aft berth, two heads, separate stall shower, hot/cold pressure water, a large comfortable salon with a capacious extending dining table, and lots of ventilation.
In addition, her large capacity fuel and water tanks, cutter rig, makes “Lost Loon” a true- blue water cruising sailing vessel.
Owner’s comments
After 9 years of unforgettable cruising, from the turquoise shallows of the Bahamas to the lush bays of Grenada and every gorgeous anchorage in between, Lost Loon, a 2005 Caliber 40 LRC SE, is being offered for sale. She spent her first 5 years in fresh water and was winterized every season. Her original owner spent those years outfitting her for full time cruising. In 2011, she left the Great Lakes for the Caribbean spending hurricane seasons in Grenada, on the hard.
Lost Loon was sold in 2015 to her current owners, who have carried on the tradition of meticulously maintaining and upgrading her systems. Likewise, hurricane seasons were spent hauled-out and protected with full sun cover. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most capable blue water cruisers in her class, renowned for comfort, safety, storage and long-range capability. The present owners find the following qualities are what make this sailboat one of a kind:
Tank Tender monitoring System (no mechanical gauges in the tank, air pressure is used to measure tank levels)
All capacities are approximate.
Caliber's trademark* design incorporates a Multi-Bulkhead Bonding System*, an Integral Strength-Grid System* for strength and safety, integral baffled tanks act as double bottoms while adding tremendous rigidity to the hull structure, with additional strength from the integral sub-sole. Additionally, there is a Water-Tight Collision Bulkhead*.
Hulls are built for outstanding resistance to collisions, with extra layers of solid fiberglass at potential impact points. In case of damage to the bow or rudder, a Watertight Collision Bulkhead and Rudder Dam are designed to minimize flooding.
When rough water makes most sailors miserable, a Caliber owner can cruise in comfort. And with confidence. The Caliber moves more steadily in heavy seas. And due to her high ballast-to- displacement ratio, the Caliber is very stable.
A swim ladder and boarding platform built into the transom make it easy to board a dinghy or take a swim. The platform has its own hand-held shower.
In terms of accommodation, no boat of comparable size comes close to the Caliber 40. Her sleeping quarters are true staterooms, expansive and private. Instead of a cramped V-berth, there is a full forward stateroom with a generous offset double berth with ample storage space and drawers below; shelf and book rack over berth; and two-door large cedar-lined hanging locker and one-door locker with shelf storage. The master forward cabin features a private, spacious head with its own separate shower that is enclosed by a plexiglass door. Together, the forward cabin and head offer luxurious livability for extended stays.
The same kind of comfort and convenience is provided in the aft stateroom with its double berth; large cedar-lined hanging locker; and private aft-head entrance.
The main salon is well illuminated and richly furnished in teak. It takes full advantage of tall headroom and a wide beam. The result is a "living room" that is perfect for entertaining guests. Two settees offer ample seating and one of them even converts into a double berth (for a total of
7 berths). Both settees have storage under and behind, and teak cabinets over. The twin-leaf dining table folds up against the bulkhead for additional space.
The aft head is located conveniently to the cockpit, with an entrance from the aft cabin and the salon which make it accessible from either area without disturbing the other occupants. Both heads are completely outfitted with pressurized hot/cold water and shower.
The nav. station is port, aft of galley featuring chart table with hinged lid, with storage underneath; chart light, electronics cabinet, breaker panel, nav. seat with storage under. Beautiful teak and holly floor throughout and multiple handrails.
The well appointed, safety minded galley is thoughtfully designed for efficient use both at anchor and underway. Ample storage is integrated throughout, keeping provisions and cookware secure yet easily accessible. Fully equipped with essential cookware and workspace, it allows for comfortable meal preparation in any condition. Positioned between the salon and the cockpit, the galley conveniently serves both dining areas, making it an ideal hub for entertaining and everyday living aboard.
