Catalina 36 MK II - Spacious, Proven, and Ready to Cruise
With nearly 3,000 boats sold over a 26-year production run, the Catalina 36 has rightfully earned its reputation as one of the most successful and popular cruising sailboats ever built. The MK II version takes everything sailors loved about the original and refines it, with a beam carried further aft-creating a more spacious cockpit and dramatically improving the size and comfort of the quarter berth cabin.
Comfort & Functionality on Deck
Designed with safety and ease of handling in mind, the Catalina 36 features wide side decks, double lifelines, and a molded toe rail. At the bow, you'll find a dedicated anchor locker with a stainless steel roller for efficient ground tackle management. All halyards are led aft to winches at the companionway, making sail handling convenient and safe.
The cockpit on the MK II is notably larger than the earlier model, offering long bench seating, wheel steering aft, and a desirable walkthrough transom with integrated swim platform and stainless steel boarding ladder-ideal for easy access to and from the water.
Spacious & Thoughtful Interior
Below deck, the Catalina 36 MK II continues to impress with a smart and comfortable layout. A generous V-berth is forward, followed by a head with shower to port, and a hanging locker and additional storage to starboard.
The main saloon features a large U-shaped dinette to port and two comfortable chairs with a small table to starboard-perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The aft galley is fully equipped with a double stainless steel sink, two-burner stove with oven, top-loading icebox, and ample storage. Opposite the galley is a navigation station, followed by the standout feature of the MK II design: a spacious aft quarter cabin with a wide athwartship double berth and easy access, thanks to the wider beam.
Reliable Rig & Performance
The Catalina 36 is rigged as a masthead sloop with a single spreader mast and fore-and-aft lower shrouds-a setup that balances performance with ease of use, ideal for coastal cruising or longer adventures.
