1983 Catalina 38

Wilmington, United States

$37,000

A VERY well maintained example of this evergreen Sparkman and Stevens design that offers sparkling performance and comfortable cruising accommodations. Tonic has been easily single/double handed, sailing throughout Southern California with her knowledgeable owner including cruises extending 10+ days to remote surf spots and snorkeling destinations off the Channel Islands.  Anchoring and mooring are simple and drama-free with her nimble handling and tight turning radius, hallmarks of this classic S&S design. 

Her multiple upgrades include:

New electrical wiring done for the engine in 2021

Replaced oil and water filters and engine oil in 2021

New solar panels

New set of deep cycle batteries

Installed two new USB electrical ports - one at the chart table and one in the cockpit by the helm

Installed LED lights throughout the interior

New custom Teak cockpit table and drink holders

Reinstalled hot and cold fresh water lines to the head

Installed a propane stove and oven

Installed custom lazy  jacks and stack pack for easy short handed sailing

Removal and cleaning and installation of all fuel injectors for improved engine performance

Replaced and repainted deck paint/nonskid 

Replaced and secured a number of stanchions

New wheel mounted autopilot drive

New VHF radio
