Owned by a local captain and freshly detailed with a professional hull and deck wax, this 1984 Catalina 36 represents one of the most popular 36-foot cruising sailboats ever built. The deck was repainted within the past few years, giving her a clean presentation and the kind of shine that turns heads around the marina. She's a straightforward cruiser that's been thoughtfully maintained and lightly modernized without losing her classic Catalina character.

Below deck, the traditional Catalina 36 layout offers a comfortable salon and a practical galley with a two-basin stainless sink, raw-water foot pump, GSI natural-gas stove and oven, and a recently upgraded top-loading refrigerator. There's deep dry-goods storage for extended cruising, a marine head with shower sump, and added touches like LED lighting, vent fans, and a Magma grill in the cockpit.

Her sailing inventory includes a Harken furler, a near-new mainsail (2019/2020), and standing rigging replaced in 2018. The Lewmar self-tailing winches are well-sized for the rig, and the running rigging remains in good to very good condition. The engine has a strong reputation for reliability, complemented by recent upgrades to the riser, elbow, and heat exchanger. Electrical power is supported by Renogy solar panels and dual West Marine batteries, along with a multifunction generator for backup. While some systems could benefit from cosmetic attention or simple replacement-such as the autopilot's gyro and macerator-the fundamentals are solid, and her bones are sound. For anyone seeking a proven coastal cruiser that's ready for weekends on the water, this Catalina 36 is a smart, approachable choice.
