Gimme Shelter is a C.W. Hood Katama 30, now aggressively priced after a $25,000 reduction. For buyers considering a Downeast-style performance boat, this is one of the most compelling opportunities currently available.

Designed by C.W. Hood and the model that inspired the Lyman-Morse Hood 35 LM, the Katama 30 delivers exceptional performance, clean lines, and modern handling in a proven package. Her jet drive, joystick control, and integrated bow thruster make docking effortless and set her apart from other boats in this size range.

She has been professionally maintained and stored by Lyman-Morse for the past four seasons and shows well throughout. Notable recent upgrades include all new cushions in 2025, along with a new inverter and batteries.

This is a turnkey boat that offers far more capability and pedigree than others in her class at this price point. The recent reduction positions her to sell quickly, and she should be on the short list for any serious buyer.
