The interior is beautifully finished with classic teak and holly flooring, offering the warmth of traditional yacht craftsmanship along with practical durability. Rich cherry cabinetry adds elegance and depth, creating a warm atmosphere that feels equal parts refined and welcoming.
To starboard, a large L-shaped settee provides plenty of space for guests to lounge or for the crew to relax after a day underway. Forward in the salon, a 39” Vizio smart TV is wall-mounted for easy viewing, making movie nights or catching the game onboard a breeze. Smartly integrated cabinetry and shelving throughout provide abundant storage without sacrificing the clean, uncluttered look.
Every detail has been considered for comfort and convenience. All interior lighting has been upgraded to energy-efficient LEDs, creating a warm glow while conserving power. The 12V electrical panel is conveniently located to port of the steps leading up to the pilothouse, while the 110V panel is placed to starboard—keeping ship systems accessible and intuitive.
The salon aboard Kateri Marie is more than just a living space—it’s the heart of the yacht. Whether you’re hosting friends, sharing a family meal, or enjoying a quiet evening on the hook, this thoughtfully updated and welcoming retreat makes life onboard both stylish and effortless.
At its heart is a reliable Princess three-burner cooktop, ready for everything from morning pancakes to multi-course dinners. Complementing it is a new convection microwave with integrated air fryer, giving you the versatility to bake, roast, or reheat with ease. A sleek molded double-basin sink makes prep and cleanup simple, and the Whirlpool dishwasher turns post-meal chores into a non-event.
Cold storage is more than covered with separate under-counter refrigerator and freezer units, plus the rebuilt SubZero freezer that ensures long-term reliability on extended voyages. A GE trash compactor helps streamline waste management, keeping the space tidy and minimizing trips ashore.
All of this is wrapped in warm cherry cabinetry and surrounded by classic teak and holly flooring, giving the galley both durability and timeless yacht styling. Generous cabinetry and drawer storage mean there’s more than enough room for cookware, provisions, and dinnerware—without clutter or compromise.

Entertainment is just as well thought out. A Rockford Fosgate stereo system fills the bridge with high-quality sound, making it the perfect spot to enjoy music, host friends, or unwind with your favorite playlist while taking in the view.
Generous wraparound seating makes this space as social as it is functional. With all-new cushions and a layout that encourages conversation, there’s plenty of room for family and friends to gather in comfort while still giving the captain clear sightlines and easy access to all controls.
Whether docking in a quiet harbor, cruising the ICW, or enjoying sunset cocktails with the breeze on your face, the flybridge aboard Kateri Marie offers the perfect vantage point for both confident piloting and memorable moments on the water.
Her twin Cummins 6CTA8.3 Diamond Series 450 HP diesels are regarded as one of the most reliable and efficient engines in their class. With fewer than 2,000 hours, they have years of dependable service ahead—ideal for a yacht designed to cruise long distances. Both engines have benefitted from recent care, including rebuilt turbochargers, newly fabricated risers, and a complete propeller service with PropScan tuning, ensuring smooth, efficient operation.
Power delivery comes through ZF Marine IRM301A transmissions mated to Twin Disc electronic controls, giving the captain precision response at both helms. Close-quarters maneuvering is made even easier with the addition of a Lewmar 185TT 5.0 KW stern thruster, which pairs with the bow thruster and dual helm controls to make docking stress-free, even in challenging conditions.
Her SeaStar Teleflex hydraulic steering offers light yet responsive handling, equally at home threading narrow channels or holding course offshore. Supporting systems have been renewed as well, including upgraded bilge pumps, fresh dripless shaft seals with spare collars, refinished shafts and props coated in PropSpeed, new zincs, and a fully detailed engine room. A complete bottom strip, fairing, and fresh paint application rounds out her recent mechanical investment.
The result is a yacht that doesn’t just look the part—Kateri Marie is mechanically dialed-in and ready to cruise with the confidence expected of a vessel prepared for the Great Loop or extended coastal passagemaking.
On the DC side, power is distributed through dedicated battery banks that keep critical systems reliable and independent. Each of her twin Cummins 6CTA8.3 engines is supported by its own 8D battery for confident starting, while additional 8D and Group 31 batteries supply the davit crane, bow thruster, and stern thruster. A pair of Group 31 batteries serve the house system, ensuring uninterrupted service for lighting, electronics, and everyday onboard functions.
For AC power, a Kohler 13.5 kW generator delivers ample capacity to run household systems while underway or on the hook. The generator has its own dedicated start battery, further ensuring independence and reliability. Shore power is made effortless with a Glendinning 50-amp Cablemaster system, which deploys and retracts the cord at the touch of a button—eliminating the hassle of manual handling.
Recent enhancements, including an EcoFlow lithium battery generator with solar input, provide supplemental charging flexibility, while Starlink internet integration ensures modern connectivity across the vessel.
Altogether, the electrical system aboard Kateri Marie is robust, redundant, and intelligently designed—offering safe, consistent power no matter where your cruising plans take you.
Freshwater is carried in durable plastic tanks with a combined capacity of approximately 200 gallons, providing plenty of supply for showers, cooking, cleaning, and daily use whether at anchor or underway. A 12V freshwater pump ensures consistent pressure to every faucet and fixture throughout the yacht.
Hot water is delivered by a 6-gallon heater, offering quick recovery and steady service to the galley and heads—making it simple to enjoy the comforts of home no matter where you’re cruising.
For waste handling, a 50-gallon plastic black water holding tank services both onboard heads. The system is equipped with Vacuflush marine toilets, valued for their low water use, reliability, and odor-free performance. In addition, both heads and macerators have been recently rebuilt, ensuring the system is fully refreshed and ready for extended service.
Durable, efficient, and easy to maintain, the plumbing system aboard Kateri Marie supports the comfort, safety, and independence expected of a yacht designed for serious cruising.
