An evolution of award-winning design features

Lead keel, roomy cockpit, long traveler for precise sail control, long inboard genoa tracks that allow a balanced sail plan in all wind conditions -- these are just a few of the award-winning design features in the all-new Catalina 385. With its moderate beam carried well aft for a spacious cockpit, and moderate freeboard for reduced windage and sleek profile, this new Catalina captures all the best elements of previous Boat of the Year Catalina designs. Below decks, warm teak and teak veneers hand-finished with clear varnishes add a classic yachty touch, but innovative design features like the custom electrical panel that allows for continual monitoring of systems, and a nav table with recessed laptop compartment and dedicated power ports, address the needs of today’s sailors.

Like all Catalinas above 30 feet, the new 385 is robustly built to CE Category A standards, is NMMA Yacht-certified and follows all applicable ABYA Council standards to ensure a quality, safe and durable yacht. Catalina’s ongoing commitment to owner satisfaction shines through in this beautiful new design, showcasing yet again why Catalina Yachts has been one of the most prominent builders of sailboats in the United States and the world, for over 40 years.
