Catalina for sale (1989) in PORT CHARLOTTE, Florida, United States

Hurricane-Damaged Sailboat – Motivated Seller

She sustained some hurricane damage: the port-side rub rail and surrounding fiberglass are dinged up, and the bow pulpit is bent. The mainsail is in good condition, and there’s a spinnaker onboard. However, the jib sail was destroyed in the storm.

The Universal Diesel initially started, but now it won't crank. The mechanic suspects it may have thrown a rod, but we're not certain yet.

Also included:

• 7-foot hard dinghy
• 2011 Mercury 3.5 HP outboard
• Dinghy davits

The bimini and dodger were lost during the storm, but the frames are still intact.

Interior Upgrades:

• All interior lighting converted to LED
• New cushions throughout: closed-cell foam with white and blue covers in the cockpit and cabin

Engine:
