Catalina Yachts

Catalina continues to build on its cruising heritage while respecting proven design foundations. The 6 Series introduces refined improvements — updated keel profiles developed with Mars Metal, a new Selden rig system, multi-axial fibreglass in high-load areas, and modern rigging arrangements that enhance lift, efficiency, and responsiveness.  These upgrades are engineered to preserve the dependable handling, balanced helm, and seaworthy behaviour Catalina is known for, while delivering performance gains and usability enhancements across the lineup.

Catalina continues to prioritize materials that enhance structural integrity, reliability, and long-term value. All models are built with lead ballast keels, not iron, ensuring superior density, corrosion resistance, and consistent weight distribution over time. Hulls are hand-laid using solid fiberglass below the waterline, reinforced in high-load areas, and finished to ABYC standards. Decks and structural members use multi-directional fibreglass and marine-grade core materials for optimal strength-to-weight ratios. Teak and other durable hardwoods are used for interior trim and accents, selected for both aesthetics and resilience. Every component like hatches, deck hardware, cabinetry, and rigging systems are chosen for function first, with no cost-cutting where it counts. For a production yacht, few builders invest this heavily in long-term durability and real-world dependability.

In 2025, Catalina announced the Catalina 48, its most forward-leaning design concept to date. Developed in collaboration with Tripp Design Naval Architecture, the 48 signals a new direction for the brand, blending Catalina’s structural integrity with a modernized approach to offshore capability, hull design, and overall scale. Still in development, the 48 carries Catalina’s reputation into a new performance class while holding to the brand’s core values of strength, simplicity, and long-term ownership.

Catalina builds yachts that reward time on the water. With durable construction, refined design, and systems that work, they offer real performance and lasting value. Nothing unnecessary. Everything that matters.

STYLE & DETAILS

Catalina’s philosophy is straightforward: Design boats that stand up to real world conditions, sail well and hold their value.

UNDERSTANDING NEEDS + DREAMS

Catalina listens to active owners and sailors to build boats that reflect the collective wisdom and experience of thousands of cruises and sea miles.

BUILT FOR EVERY SAILOR

Catalina’s design is evolutionary, building on the success of previous models by incorporating many favorite, proven features.

The Closer You Look, The Better It Gets!

Catalina remains one of the major builders of production sailboats, and are now as well known for their line of full-size, go-anywhere, systems-rich cruising yachts as they are for the entry-level boats that helped launch the brand.

Lead Keels

It is denser (heavier for its volume) than cast iron. Lead weighs almost twice as much per cubic inch compared to cast iron. This means a stiffer, more stable boat and more efficient keel (less wetted surface means less drag), while requiring far less maintenance than other materials. Unlike cast iron keels, Catalina’s lead keels will not rust or require elaborate maintenance. Catalina keels are cast from high quality lead with antimony added to make the castings harder than lead alone, and therefore less subject to damage from grounding. The keel bolts are 316-alloy stainless steel and are cast in place for strength. Catalina lead keels are faired and epoxy coated.

Hull Structural Systems

Catalina employs two types of sub-sole structural systems, each specially suited to the hull design, keel and rigging loads. Both systems are designed for long-term durability and strength.

Mast Support System

Stainless Steel T‐Beam MastStep™ system structure providing all the benefits of a deck‐stepped mast and the strength of a keel‐stepped mast. SecureSocket™ mast support/chainplate system.

Deck Ergonomics

“Ball and Socket” tie rods allow perfect alignment of loads to the hull structure, and mast step compression post construction delivers benefits of a deck-stepped mast and strength of a keel-stepped mast.

Rigging, Sailing & Deck Hardware

Catalina masts are well-supported for the rigours of offshore sailing and include backstays. This creates a system with a total of eleven attachment points to the deck for the standing rigging (most models), the ultimate in security. Winches are oversized and require less effort when sheeting. Primary and secondary winches are standard on most models and are available as electric powered, if desired. Travelers are multi-purchase and fully controllable from one side for convenience. Critical deck hardware is secured with large metal back-up plates and stainless steel fasteners.

Hand Crafted Interiors

Dramatically styled teak interiors and laminates finished with a satin varnish for durability and beauty.
