Broker's Comments

This Catalina 350 has been well maintained by her owners and has cruised the Florida coast and the Keys with its current owner since purchased in 2015. It is time for a change of scenery, the owners are moving to Texas to be closer to their Grandchildren, so the house and boat are on the market.

I found many reviews on Catalina 350's but this one from yachtandboat by YATCO said it very well....



"The 350’s design theme and all boats have a theme that is easy use, a lot of standard equipment and a lot of clever detail design. The list of standard equipment is very long and the price is short. The result is an extremely comfortable craft in the habitat sense i.e. both down below and while sailing. But it should also be very comfortable to live on for long periods of time, as the clever detail design eliminates all the niggles, which can make long-term sailing a chore...."

There was minor damage during Hurricane Ian, the solar panels dropped on the helm, hence all the new instruments and new solar panels. There is also repair on the transom.

The dinghy, outboard, and owner's personal items are not included in the sale. The dinghy and motor will be available for sale after closing.
