Orion, 2016 Catalina 445
$355,000
ORION is carefully maintained and lightly used with low engine hours. She is an open ocean-capable cruiser in splendid condition and has extra refrigeration/freezer, fuel capacity, power and a host of upgrades and optional equipment to make adventure a pleasure.
Orion's hull form is optimized to provide the gentle, predictable motion underway. The deck is strikingly handsome with a low profile cabin structure, twin helm stations and a roomy cockpit with tall, secure comfortable coamings and a cockpit table that seats 4-6. The deck is finished with a traditional diamond-patterned non-skid.
The owner's cabin is forward for privacy and optimum ventilation. Private head access from the forward cabin along with an electric fresh water head and separate shower complete the forward cabin arrangement. The guest cabin is aft with a large comfortable double berth, angled for easy access and greater headroom. This design incorporates an innovative, third cabin on the port side. This cabin is a flexible space that can easily be converted to whatever your cruising style dictates at the time-sleeping quarters, storage, or a work room with a bench. The galley has the storage and features needed for extended cruising.
