1987 Catalina 25

Price Reduced- Again Very, very nice 1987 Catalina 25 pop-top sailboat with trailer. Tall Rig, mast-head sloop rigged with older Doyle mainsail and newer, crisp, 150% Genoa with two year old Harken furler. The boat is in outstanding condition with brand new bottom paint and polished hull. This is the wing keel version, with 2.83’ draft. Topside decks and cockpit are in very good condition. The tall rig mast can be rigged with the boom lower for racing or higher for more headroom. HDPE racing rudder. Includes a newer Minn Kota long shaft electric motor on a solid motor mount if you want it, although for powering it in much of any wind or waves you’ll want more horsepower. Stanchions and lifelines are solid and sturdy, as are the bow and pulpit railings. Two Danforth anchors and lots of line in the forward anchor locker. Enormous lockable garage below the port side seat for storage. Below is a clean, comfortable and well designed cabin. The galley is equipped with the well regarded Origo 3000 alcohol stove that works as it should, and when not in use is covered by a nice clean cutting/serving board. Fold down table in the saloon stores up out of the way when you want, or down for visiting or playing cards and eating. Cushions throughout are clean with no rips, and the cabin sole is carpeted. Squeaky-clean rarely used porta potty and small sink in the lav. V-berth forward sleeps two, aft starboard quarter berth sleeps one (two in a pinch) and the main cabin sleeps one tall and one short person. With the pop-top raised you have standing headroom coming down the ladder and galley- to me one of the greatest features of this boat. As for the electrical system, two solar panels keep the two twelve-volt batteries charged up easily. There is a USB charge port on the electrical panel, and all cabin lights and nav lights work, though the masthead and deck light on the mast do not- a previous owner cut the wires. Clean, dry bilge with whale gusher hand pump in the cockpit. Feel free to contact me at six one 2 3 eight six three 737 for more info/photos. Thank you!

Equipment: Roller trailer with decent tires, Ritchie compass, brass oil lamp, clock and barometer, dock bumpers, life jackets, spinnaker pole, lots of extra sails, including a lightweight racing 150 Genoa, autopilot (not installed, never tested), extra sheets, sunbrella covers for cabin top and mainsail, etc, various extra blocks and small spare items, some dock lines, etc. Water system came with a clean bill of health from the previous owners, but I have never tested it or used it. Porta-potty was rarely used, but I thoroughly cleaned and tested with no leaks.
