1998 Catalina 250 Wing Keel | Custom Trailer | New Mainsail (2023)

Offered is a beautifully maintained 1998 Catalina 250, a proven and versatile coastal cruiser known for its comfortable layout, easy handling, and exceptional trailerability. This wing keel model delivers excellent stability and shallow-water access, making it ideal for bays, lakes, and near-coastal cruising.

This vessel stands out with extensive upgrades and thoughtful improvements focused on ease of use, reliability, and owner comfort. The standing rigging has been upgraded, including new turnbuckles and multiple quick-release connections-particularly at key mast raise/lower points-making stepping the mast faster and more manageable.

Power is provided by a Honda 9.9 HP outboard in excellent running condition, renowned for reliability and efficiency. Sail inventory includes a new mainsail installed in 2023, hardly used, along with a gennaker, offering strong performance across a wide range of conditions.

The boat is equipped with updated electronics, including radio, depth finder, speed, and temperature gauges. Comfort upgrades include installed USB charging ports, a forward air scoop with screen, and additional small enhancements throughout that make time aboard more enjoyable.

A major highlight is the custom-built trailer, constructed specifically for this Catalina 250 after purchase. The trailer features a mast-raising system and extended tongue, allowing for safe, stress-free launching and retrieval even on long or shallow ramps-an exceptional advantage rarely found at this size and price point.

This Catalina 250 is a turnkey opportunity for sailors seeking a capable, well-equipped cruiser that is easy to transport, launch, and enjoy immediately.
