DESCRIPTION

If you are a sailor, then you have definitely heard of Catalinas, and the 38 is one of their most popular models of that era.

They were manufactured by Catalina Yachts of Woodland Hills, California fromand a total of 366 hulls were produced. The boat was originally designed to IORC rules by the yacht design firm of Sparkman & Stephens for the Yankee Boat Company, which built approximately 30 Yankee 38's. Frank Butler of Catalina Yachts purchased the molds from Yankee. Butler redesigned the interior and gave the boat a Catalina-styled deck. He lengthened the mast, shortened the boom, and changed the keg-hung rudder to a balanced spade design. Butler's changes resulted in a faster, better sailing boar and the Catalina 38 was selected to replace the Cal 40 as the official boat of the Congressional Cup, one of the top match-racing regattas in the world. This 1979 Catalina 38 (Hull #6) was the 1980 Congressional Cup winner!

An article on the racing configuration of the Catalina 38 can be found in the 8th edition of Royce's Sailing Illustrated. Roomy and spacious with 6'3" headroom, the Catalina 38 is a comfortable cruiser/racer.

She was repowered in 2003 with a Westerbeke 33 (4-cycle 30-35 hp).
