About this Sailboat:
This 25′ Catalina offers the buyer a complete package. The dual axle trailer with extension launches this vessel with ease and the 05′ 9.9hp 4 Stroke with electric start moves the boat at hull speed of 6.5 knots and the charging system keeps the battery topped off. Full canvas including a bimini and cockpit cushions add additional comfort. A small table down below expands to a table that will accommodate four people in the cockpit. The centerboard allows for “skinny” sailing with minimum draft of 1′ 8″ to 5′ 9″. The water ballast of 1100lbs is simple to drain and fill and a fresh water connection to the system is a bonus. The enclosed portable head has been barely used. Pop up the top and snap on the enclosure and you have full standing headroom. Double berths fore and aft allow plenty of space for a family of four. Raising the mast is a piece of cake with the side support stays that steady the mast while it is being winched up. Roller furling and a lazy jack system to store your mainsail is another bonus.
