The boat was designed for daysailing and coastal cruising.  The interior includes a large quarterberth, convertible dinette, a good sized vee-berth, an enclosed head and very efficient galley with stainless sink, ice locker and alcohol stove.

Whether you are heading to your favorite island or going out to enjoy the sunset, the Catalina 27 will take you there with style and comfort.

Broker’s Remarks:

This Catalina 27 has had many upgrades in the last six years, both inside and out.  All interior cushions have been replaced, along with a new head, plumbing and a new Origo 3000 non-pressurized alcohol stove.  The bottom of the boat has been completely stripped, all blisters repaired, then faired using vinylester resin, then two barrier and bottom coats of paint applied .  Four new stainless keel bolts were also added to the keel.

A new Hood roller furler  was installed four years ago along with a new Simrad Autopilot.  The Yanmar Diesel Engine has been meticulously maintained.  The sails are all in great shape and the mainsail and bimini canvas have been well taken care of.  All deck non-skid areas were also redone.

If you are looking for a great old sailing vessel that you won’t have to spend a lot of time working on or won’t break the bank, this may be the boat for you…………………MAKE OFFER!

Accommodations:

Upon entering the interior, immediately to port is a large quarterberth which extends all the way to the transom.  Continuing forward, is the galley with a two burner Origo alcohol stove, good sized ice locker and single stainless steel sink with storage both above and below.  To starboard, is a large dinette which converts to a double berth.  Forward of the dinette, is an enclosed head with a hanging locker opposite.  Forward, is a nice sized vee-berth, with filler.  There is both a large and small opening hatch above the vee-berth area for light and ventilation.
