Manufacturer Provided Description

Because the Catalina 36 is easily handled by a couple, has a big comfortable cockpit, a spacious interior with two private cabins and the integrity to pursue cruising dreams, many experienced sailors consider the Catalina 36 the perfect boat for their sailing lifestyle. The Catalina 36 MkII has all the important characteristics that made the original the most popular 36-foot sailboat in the world. The Mark II Catalina 36 is built in the same seakindly moderate displacement hull. It tracks surely and performs well in a variety of conditions. The deck is the classic trunk cabin configuration – proven, comfortable and functional. The main cabin and galley have received special attention to design and detail. The galley is a functional ‘U’ shape, with composite countertops, the sinks are near centerline for proper drainage underway. A large refrigerated ice box is aft and a dry food locker is forward. A gimballed, stainless steel LPG stove with oven is standard equipment. The main cabin can be arranged with a dinette or traditional table. The two seats and game table to starboard can be made into a settee or berth with the cushions provided. The entertainment center cabinet can be fitted with a stereo and concealed TV. The main cabin and all interior teak has the warmth and durability only obtained with multiple coats of varnish. The 36 has stainless steel hand rails and anodized spars, reducing maintenance on deck and extending the sailing season. The mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems have been re-engineered to increase dependability and accessibility. Engine access, for example, is excellent, with the one-piece, insulated enclosure removed. The hull is rugged, hand-laminated, solid fiberglass; the keel is lead with integrally cast stainless steel bolts. The mast is stepped through the deck on the keel and has inline spreaders and fore and aft lower shrouds, a sturdy arrangement that is easy to tune.

Q & As:

We have had the following questions from people interested in the boat, with the owners providing the following answers. Thinking that others may have similar questions, below are answers from the current owners:

  • For what period did the two owners own the boat? Current owners have owned and operated since November of 2019. Sailing Sea of Cortez 6 months each year.
  • When last hauled? Condition of the hull and bottom paint? It was last hauled, surveyed and bottom painted just as new owners purchased the boat in 2019….so just over 3 years ago. In serviceable condition
  • Any current or past blisters? Current owner dives the boat regularly and reports no blisters and generally good condition….no Catalina smile…but bottom paint is due soon.
  • Any collision or grounding damage that would be revealed in a survey? Absolutely not!
  • Last survey date? Nov 2019, reviewed Feb 2020
  • Are solar panels permanent or must they be removed to sail Permanently attached to a beautifully welded frame pushpit replacing the wire lifelines about the stern quarter. 540 Watts and solid mount is impressive
  • Age of 6-volt batteries? Currently 4-6 volt golf cart batteries replaced Feb 12th 2023. Brand New!
  • Was there ever a dining table in the main cabin? This Catalina 36 has the side table for two and a full size salon table that folds against the salon bulkhead when not used. It is set up in minutes, and is regularly up and down for current owners.
  • When was the engine last serviced? General condition excellent, w/3700 hrs. The cooling system just overhauled as routine. Oil changed at 100 hour intervals and/or new season. Valves just adjusted and are quiet. Bolts and Terminals cleaned and tightened. New alternator belt and wiring checked. A new fuel pump just added. Engine hours reported as 3700 and in great shape…instant start and cool running. These engines are good for 8 to 10 thousand hours when maintained.
