Designed as a performance cruiser, this vessel is equally at home racing or cruising the coast. She boasts a comfortable deck as well as spacious accommodations. The Catalina 30 offers more boat inside and out than most production sailing sloops and is why she remains so popular. With 64 interior head room, a 10’ 10” beam, and comfortable accommodations for 4-6 people, there is plenty of room below for a weekend or a week! All lines lead to the cockpit for ease of single handing, and a large cockpit with pedestal steering, stern seats, cockpit cushions, and plenty of cup holders, make her fun to host friends and family, whether at sea, at anchor, or at dock.
The Catalina 30 represents an innovative approach to cruising boat design, as it incorporates the big boat features many couples desire in an easily handled, stable thirty-foot hull. The cockpit will comfortably day sail a group, and has long seats for napping or sleeping under the stars. Cockpit lockers are numerous and large enough to hold all your cruising gear.
The side decks are extra wide and secure for easy movement forward and aft. Sail controls and anchoring systems are well thought out for ease of handling. The accommodations include a V-berth and convertible port sette, that will comfortably sleep two more. There is a double berth aft, that will sleep at least one more. The dining table stores on the bulk head for lots of open space below!
One of the key upgrades made to Patience, was an instant hot water heater that runs off the same fuel as the stove. Installed in the head, this excellent feature provides on demand hot water for showers or doing dishes, without having to run the engine. This model of HWH has been in use on Patience for more than 10 years, with a new one installed in 2022.
We are the 3rd owner of Patience, and have thoroughly enjoyed her for the past 17 years. She is a great boat, in good condition, and is sure to provide her new owners with as many great memories as she has given to us!

Calculations
- Hull Speed
-
8.4 kn
Classic: 6.59 kn
Hull Speed
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Formula
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
25.2
>20: high performance
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
Formula
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
- SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D: Displacement in pounds.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
46.1
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Formula
Ballast / Displacement * 100
- Displacement/Length
-
157.4
100-200: light
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
Formula
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- Comfort Ratio
-
12.0
<20: lightweight racing boat
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Formula
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- Capsize Screening
-
2.6
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
Formula
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
Notes
BMW diesel (9hp) offered as an option.
