Freedom Benefits
Built in the third year of a production run of the most popular 40 foot sailboat ever designed...the 1998 Catalina 400 is an excellent price/value Features like a Solid Fiberglass Hull, shoal draft with Lead Keel, and Keel stepped mast insure "good bones" in this stiff offshore sailing machine. You don't have to worry about a misaligned interior after an extended big water offshore passage. She's built to sail with confidence and safety. Freedom is out of the water on our Upland Dock in St Pete and easy to view 7 days a week.

Hull and DeckSolid single-piece FRP construction with externally attached lead wing keel followed by a spade rudder. The deck is also FRP construction with end grain balsa coring, except in areas of high loads/stress, where the deck is a solid laminate with backing plates for deck hardware, which is then either drilled and tapped or thru-bolted. The hull-to-deck joint is done with an internal hull flange and the deck is then thru-bolted with the joint being covered by a slotted aluminum toe rail. The chainplates are well inboard affording a tight sheeting angle to windward as well as making for uncluttered side decks.
