2003 CATALINA 28 Mark II! On the Water and Ready to Sail!
This 2003 Catalina 28 Mark II is a well-equipped and easy-to-handle cruiser, perfect for day sailing or weekend trips with family and friends. Powered by a reliable Universal 25XPBC diesel engine and featuring easy-to-manage sails, the boat has a shallow 3'5" draft that allows access to many shallow sailing areas.
Entering through the companionway, the cabin opens to a comfortable salon with twin settees and a dinette table, with storage lockers below. To port is a private head with marine toilet, sink, opening port, and storage. Forward is a V-berth with an overhead hatch for ventilation. Aft to starboard is the galley with a single-burner propane stove, sink with hand pump, and storage lockers, followed by the electrical panel and a spacious aft berth with access to the water ballast, battery, battery charger, and holding tank. The layout comfortably sleeps four with a forward V-berth and large aft berth, and the cabin feels roomy and practical for a 28-foot cruiser.
