Located in Forked River, New Jersey, this 1994 Catalina 30 Mark III Tall Rig is a great Coastal Cruiser - Racer. The condition of the canvas, the deck, the rigging, the interior and everything about this boat speaks to the pride of ownership that she has enjoyed.
The Catalina 30 was the largest and longest continuous production keel boat in the world, with over 6,500 hulls produced. The design was also a 2001 American Sailboat Hall of Fame Inductee.
If you’re looking for comfort and stability, you will appreciate the additional 1900 lbs of weight versus many competitors in this class. And if you’re also looking for performance, the PHRF ratings suggest that this tall rig boat is substantially faster than the same model with normal rig. The 150% Genoa also boosts your total sail area and your performance!
With all lines are fed to the cockpit and self-tailing winches, this boat is suitable for single handed or short handed sailing. Further, the boat has a Dutchman sail flaking system making dropping and flaking the mainsail easier.
The interior is roomy and well laid out. There is a forward V-berth, a full head with a hand-held shower that drains into the bilge. Just outside the V-berth are a hanging locker and drawers for clothes storage.
The main cabin feels large for a 30′ boat. The L-shaped settee to port can be used with the cabin table, with the table as a filler for a double berth, or the table can be folded up against the bulkhead for extra floor space. A bench settee balances out the seating to starboard.
There is a double quarterberth under the cockpit to sleep two more.
The galley has a gimbaled propane stove and oven, double sinks, a microwave and a refrigerated / uninsulated icebox. There is ample cabinet space for storage. Opposite the galley is a nav station.
There are lots of extras and upgrades included - Zarcor companionway doors (w/ white, smoked and screen inserts), Lifesling, Cruisair Carryon AC, Dinghy, and more! Check out the features and specs…
Don’t miss out on your opportunity to own this awesome Catalina 30!
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.
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
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.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Hull# 5820+. A wing keel version was available, as was a tall rig.
Wing keel draft: 1.17m 3.83’.
Last Catalina 30 was built in 2008.
(from CATALINA MKII):
Re-designed cockpit and open transom. Updated galley. Topside windows.
