From their brochure:
We designed the Catalina 30 to be big and comfortable.
She boasts a long waterline combining wide beam and plenty of ballast so she'll stand up to her sail.
She is designed for comfort as well as performance. The large and efficient self-bailing cockpit reflects this concept. The Catalina 30 cabin length, height, depth and especially the width permit amazingly spacious, luxurious accommodation.
There are berths for seven, including the unique large aft double berth. Forward is a comfortable double cabin, with shelves and a large overhead hatch. Just aft is a generously proportioned head area with molded in shower pan.
The aft galley is easy and fun to use with a top loading ice box and large double sinks. It's out of the traffic yet open and handy. The navigation station is like those found on much larger yachts, providing storage for charts and navigation equipment.
Storage space aboard the Catalina 30 is abundant and well planned. All shelves in both cabins have teak pin rails to keep things in place. Forward, opposite the head is a generous hanging locker and chest of drawers. Beneath all seats and berths are easily accessible compartments for larger gear and supplies.
For many the ownership of the Catalina 30 represents the culmination of a dream to possess a comfortable, able, blue water cruising yacht.
Others appreciate the Catalina 30's proven race winning capability and outstanding performance.
However you intend to use your Catalina you can be confident she was built by those who understand the demands of the sea.
Catalina also understands your desire for a high quality yacht that represents a sound investment.
The Catalina 30 features a spacious main salon with a U-shaped dinette to port that converts into a double berth, creating a versatile living and dining area.
