ACCOMMODATIONS AND STYLING Callahan boasts a modern raised main salon with gorgeous varnished teak joinery throughout. The interior is bright and welcoming with four large fixed windows wrapped sleekly around the salon with natural light pouring through the various opening portlights and hatches. The joinery is truly artwork in and of itself with louvered cabinetry for proper ventilation, fiddled teak trimming, integrated grab rails for ease of movement about the yacht, and a beautiful teak and holly cabin sole. Stepping down the companionway you'll enter the spacious and comfortable main salon with two large settees, dining table, and navigation station to starboard. The passageway galley to port leads aft to the large owners stateroom with centerline queen and ensuite head with separate stall shower. The forward section of the yacht has a port passageway with custom desk and removable stool that can be positioned in the main salon for added seating. The forward cabin is a proper sized v-berth complete with adjacent access to the day head. Callahan can sleep six among two cabins and the convertible settee in the main salon. |

HULL AND DECK The Taswell 44 RS hull is constructed of hand laid GRP with vinylester resin for superior moisture resistance and both mat and roving fabrics. She's a solid and stiff boat with numerous longitudinal stringers. The superior hull to deck joint is both mechanically and chemically bonded with 5200 and 3/8" stainless steel bolts on 8" centers. The deck has a sandwich construction with 1/2" end grain balsa core. In areas of high stress and heavy loads solid construction and backing plates have been utilized. On deck, varnished teak seats on the stern rail are a favorite of many sailors and make for an enjoyable spot to lounge and relax both at anchor or under sail. The integral swim platform with shower has been well designed to provide easy access right down to the water level, perfect for boarding the dinghy! A stainless-steel swim ladder tucks neatly into a flush fitting compartment and grab rails on either side are perfect for divers getting in and out of the water! The aft boarding gate and split backstay allow unobstructed access to and from the boat.
