36' Catalina 36 Mk II

2003 Catalina 36 MkII

The Catalina 36 Mk II is easily handled by two people with a comfortable spacious cockpit. The main cabin and galley are trimmed with solid teak. The boat sleeps 7 with two private cabins, two seats starboard and folding table to port providing additional berths in the saloon. The galley is a functional ʻUʼ shape, with deep stainless double sinks. It has a large refrigerated/ice box aft, a dry food locker forward and a gimbaled, stainless steel LPG stove with oven and microwave overhead to port, plus a 12VDC to 120VAC inverter mounted under the NAV station. The main cabin is arranged with a dinette and fold away table for dinning or additional space. Two seats with game table are starboard with DVD/TV and Radio for entertaining.
The Catalina 36 Mk II is a wonderful boat designed with sailing as the primary focus. The deck configuration presents a beautiful low profile with low windage for sailing efficiency and an open stern for easy access on the water or while docked. It has stainless steel hand rails and life lines presenting reduced teak exposure to weather for easy maintenance.
The engine is accessed via one-piece, insulated enclosure. The Mk II hull is rugged hand-laminated using vinylester rather than polyester resins to reduce osmotic blistering. The keel is cast in lead with integrally cast stainless steel bolts. The mast is stepped through the deck onto the keel. The 35 HP Universal Diesel Engine has very low time (just over 250 hours) and most of the rubber components have been replaced.
The sails are custom tailored by Carol Hasse at "Port Townsend Sails" for sailing efficiency, ease of use and durability. Much of the running rigging was replaced in 2016 with New Sampson MLX3 halyards added July 2020. The head stay was re-rigged to raise the furling drum and a new furling drum installed in 2013 for smooth headsail operation and better anchor clearance (key problems with standard head stay rigging on the 36 MkII).
This boat has been in fresh water since July 2011, last hauled and painted Nov 2018
