The Catalina Legacy Continues

Catalina Yachts has long been one of the most successful sailing yacht manufacturers in the world. Now in its thirteenth year of production with over 700 boats sold, the Catalina 42 is one of the most successful 40 plus footers ever built. 

"Windemere", the MkII (here at our docks in San Diego) is a good example of her class. The Catalina 42 Two Cabin Pullman model offers the traditional mid-ship placement of the owners stateroom and spacious head forward with stall shower.

With a full battened mainsail, Dutchman flaking system, 135% furling genoa and sails cleaned and recently reworked, an electric main halyard reefing winch, Lewmar self tailing primary and secondaries she sails easily and well. The Catalina 42 is a handsome boat that offers solid performance, excellent accommodations and good value for buyers looking for a cruiser or club racer in this size range. The Mk II model rudder was changed to a deeper, higher aspect form which owners report improves handling and performance. The sailplan on "Windemere" will do well in San Diego's light air conditions and will be a great cruiser should the Baja Ha be in your future.

The owner is living aboard, sails her regularly and takes good care of the boat. He is getting ready to relocate to out of state and that means we need to sell her!

Catalina builds a large selection of honest, sturdy boats that hold up to real world conditions, perform well and cost less to maintain. For Catalina owners this means lots of extra value and sailing pleasure all with the bonus of an excellent resale value.
