The Catalina 400 is sought after by experienced sailors for its perfect combination of interior and exterior living spaces, sailing ability, and construction quality. Whether you are looking to cruise locally, explore the coastline, or take off on a longer cruise to the ICW (58'Mast), Bahamas, or beyond, "Sandman" is a must-see.
From its island queen sized berth in the aft cabin, twin wheel cockpit with built in table, large swim platform, and easy sail handling, it stands apart from the crowd.
This example has been meticulously cared for with only 2 careful owners from new, has never been south of New York, and has always been stored covered on land in the winter. Custom canvas winter storage cover is included.
"Sandman" features:
2 Cabin/2 head layout with fold down double berth in salon to comfortably accommodate 6 people.
In-mast furling and roller furling genoa for easy sail handling
Shoal Draft keel - only 5'4" draft for exploring shallower waters, while still maintaining stability and sailing ability with her 8000lb lead keel.
Interior comfort is enhanced with a 4kw Fisher Panda diesel Genset which can power the 2 zone Air Conditioning with reverse cycle heat. A full cockpit enclosure completements this heat and cooling to expand your climate controlled living space with an incredible view.
When heat and air conditioning are not required, she is comfortable for extended periods at anchor or on a mooring ball thanks to her 230 watts of rigid solar panels mounted above the bimini top. This lets you keep refrigeration going all season, even on a mooring, without running generator or engine to charge batteries. Even cabin outlets and microwave can be run from this solar power thanks to an 1800W Xantrex inverter.
Kato Dinghy Davits make dinghy storage a breeze - can easily hold an 11ft rigid dinghy with motor
Under way, the full suite of Raymarine electronics includes an ST6001+ Autopilot with below deck linear drive, Radar, SL70c Chart Plotter, and speed, depth, and wind gauges
The galley aft and to starboard has ample counter space to prepare elaborate meals, and has a large refrigerator with top and front openings and a freezer box inside.
Cooking can be done on the 3 burner propane stove with thermostatically controlled oven, or in the microwave oven.
Her 56hp Yanmar 4jh3E inboard diesel engine with shaft drive and PSS dripless shaft seal has just 1900 hours, has always been carefully maintained, and turns a 3 blade bronze propeller providing ample power and easy maneuvering.
At the end of the day, you can sleep securely at anchor with its 55lb Rocna anchor and 200ft of G4 5/16" anchor chain, which is easily raised and lowered by an electric windlass.
