When we bought this boat, the big "issue" was the beam. Jim had told us that the beam was one of those projects that brought the completion of the boat to a stand still. Do you take it out? Do you leave it? We did our homework and found that the Cal's are know for being "over built" with this major beam in the mid. We talked to other Cal 40 owners who had already replaced the beams in their boats. We talked to a competitive racer and owner of Northwest Rigging to hear his advise. Everyone had different opinions and ideas, but helped us come up with our conclusion that while the boat is being gutted already we may as well replace the beam as well!
