Introducing the Catalina 320, a remarkable 32-foot Racer/Cruiser from 2006, known for its exceptional performance and comfort. This used vessel features a durable fiberglass hull with a wing keel (4'6" draft), ensuring stability and agility on the water. Powered by a reliable Yanmar 3YM30 inboard diesel engine, generating 28 hp, it promises a smooth and efficient sailing experience. The Catalina 320 is designed for both racing enthusiasts and cruising aficionados, making it a versatile choice for any sailor. Its thoughtful layout provides ample space for relaxation and enjoyment while out at sea. With a focus on quality and craftsmanship, this boat is equipped to handle various conditions, ensuring you can embark on your adventures with confidence. Whether you're navigating coastal waters or enjoying a leisurely day on the lake, the Catalina 320, affectionately named "XOCOLATA," is ready to deliver unforgettable experiences on the water.
The immediate impression upon stepping below is of lightness reflected from the varnished ash battens that line the hull, teak bulkheads and hand rails, and a teak and holly sole. Nonwood surfaces are white, accented by cloth covered cushions on two settees. Sunlight filters into the boat from two Lewmar hatches and 10 portlights, four of which open to provide ventilation. Overhead lights are scattered throughout. The companionway steps are rounded up at the ends, making it easier to use when the boat is heeled and are easily removed to provide access to the Yanmar Diesel engine.

The hull of the 320 is solid fiberglass, nine alternating layers of 1.5-ounce mat and 21.7-ounce roving. Vinylester resins are used on exterior skins above and below the waterline, so the hull is guaranteed for five years against blistering. Seven additional thicknesses of mat, roving and 2415 Pro mat are laid up in the bottom of the hull until a thickness of 1 in. is reached. Layers of 1208 Promat, and 2-mm Coremat reinforce the transom and sections where hull and deck are joined.
The mast, a tapered double-spreader section constructed by Sparcraft, is stepped on deck. However, to avoid stress problems in the deck, loads are transferred directly to a compression post, which is a hardcast anodized tube attached belowdecks to 4-in. x 8-in. beams laminated to a fiberglass structural grid system.
Wire standing rigging is attached to deck plates that connect stainless tie rods located in the main salon to an L-shaped aluminum bar laminated into the hull that acts as a chainplate.
