About this vessel
The 2021 Catalina 355 is a versatile and well-crafted cruising yacht that builds upon the legacy of its predecessor, the Catalina 445. Designed by Gerry Douglas, the 355 features a sleek hull with a long waterline, moderate beam, and low-profile cabin structure, contributing to its performance and aesthetic appeal. Its rigging includes a fractional sloop configuration with a inmast furling mainsail and a 135% furling genoa, offering a total sail area of 669 ft², which enhances its agility across various wind conditions.
Under the deck, the Catalina 355 impresses with its interior layout and amenities. The saloon features twin captain chairs and a versatile folding 3quad-leaf 4 table, providing ample space for relaxation and dining. The master stateroom forward is particularly noteworthy, offering a fullsize island double berth, along with generous storage and floor space. The galley is wellequipped with a two-burner stove, refrigerator with freezer compartment, and stainless steel double sinks, ensuring comfort during extended voyages.
On the water, the Catalina 355 demonstrates impressive performance and handling. It is powered by a Yanmar 3YM30AE 29 HP diesel engine, providing reliable propulsion. The yacht 4s design includes a T-shaped cockpit with raised helm seats, enhancing comfort during sailing. Safety features such as double lifelines with gates, a walk-through stern with helm seat, and a telescoping stern boarding ladder contribute to its suitability for both leisurely cruises and more adventurous passages.
