This boat is in excellent condition for any year. I purchased it in November from an older naval architect who had it for many years and meticulously cared for it. The only flaw I saw on the boat was a drip of paint about one inch long on one of the wooden rails. There is no blistering that I found. The bottom was cleaned and painted in 2015. The interior is in excellent shape. Good cushions. Some pieces of outdoor carpeting on the floor areas. The head is the type that uses bags that are sealed and disposed of when reaching the marina. The batteries are good and it has a solar charging unit. The sails are in good condition. The outboard is a Nissan long shaft 9.8 HP. It has tiller steering. The former owner added extras to attempt to sail it solo. I am honestly not familiar with all of them.The galley had a sink and an alcohol stove. There is the forward cabin with a door and a quarter bunk on the starboard side in the rear. It is the tradional layout with two long benches and a chart table. This boat has the pop up option with 6 foot 4 inch headroom. It is the traditional layout in the bottom examples.I am from Upstate New York. I was going to transport to Florida but the cost is excessive. That's the only reason I am parting with this beautiful Catalina. It is currently in a cradle at a marina in Maryland on Chesapeake Bay.
Follow this link to see the Catalina Owners Manual. General Information on the Catalina 25 Tall Rig Length overall is 25’ 0”, LWL is 22’ 2”, beam is 8’ 0”, and the fixed keel draft is 4’ 0”. Sail area is 295 sq.ft. for the tall rig.The boat is not a racing or offshore machine, but sails reasonably well. It needs to be reefed at anything above 15 knots. Naturally the fixed lead keel model with the tall rig is the best performer, but needs to be reefed earlier. With sails properly set the boat tracks well and is easily maneuvered.An outboard engine was standard on all but the latest models. A 9 hp long shaft is probably the best choice, especially if it will charge your batteries. A 6hp long shaft is adequate for protected waters.There were two interiors available as shown in the illustration and a “pop-top” was available as an optional extra up until 1987, after which it became a standard feature. There is a lot of room below for a boat this size and the “pop-top”, if fitted, gives 6’4” headroom and plenty of ventilation.
