Seller's Description

The solid-built 1983 Catalina 36 Masthead Sloop with the 12’ beam has a spacious design to accommodate your favorite crew. This sailboat blends spacious accommodations with outstanding performance under sail.

Designed for comfort and convenience, the Catalina 36 features a stable hull with graceful lines and ample volume for spacious living quarters. The powerful rig is easily handled by a short-handed crew, while the balanced blade rudder ensures a light helm and excellent tracking ability. The Catalina also features an Auto Feather Prop referred to as a Max Prop!

On deck, you’ll find molded bulwarks and non-skid surfaces for safety, along with wide side decks for easy access to the cockpit. The large anchor well with built-in storage rack and double anchor rollers delivers secure anchoring, even with the optional dodger in place.

Inside, the interior is nicely appointed, offering a comfortable retreat after a day of sailing. The galley boasts ample workspace, a refrigerator, microwave, and a gimballed stove / oven for preparing meals on the go. The main salon features a large wrap-around dinette, sofa, and nav station, while the private queen berth forward and guest berth aft provide comfortable sleeping quarters for family and friends.

Powered by a Yanmar diesel engine, this Catalina 36 is efficient. Additional features include a custom stainless steel radar post, cockpit Bimini for sun protection, battened main, and roller furling genoa in very good condition.

With four opening hatches on deck and plenty of light and air below, this sailboat is perfect for entertaining guests. The unique aft cabin offers a settee, hanging locker, and double bunk, while the oversized V-berth provide ample space and comfort.

Engine and mechanical installations are carefully planned for easy owner maintenance, with readily accessible fuel filters, pumps, and fittings. While on those long off shore adventures you can keep your batteries charged up with the Solar Panel and integrated Soler Inverter.

Don’t miss out on this budget-friendly opportunity to own a classic Catalina sailboat!

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.2 kn
Classic: 7.37 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

8.24 knots
Classic formula: 7.37 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
14.6
<16: under powered

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.
14.57
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
40.0
>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

40.01
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
241.9
200-275: moderate

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
241.94
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
26.7
20-30: coastal cruiser

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
26.67
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

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
1.93
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Also available with a shallower draft wing keel and tall rig.
