2007 Catalina 42 MkII | 42ft

Catalina Yachts has always known the secret to success in the North American sailboat market: build comfortable boats that sail well, look nice and are affordable. Nearly 300 Catalina 42 MKIIs have been sold. 
The hull is solid fiberglass, reinforced with a molded liner that incorporates the cabin sole and furniture facings. The deck is cored with balsa except in areas that support hardware where one-half inch plywood is used instead. The 42 is rigged as a sloop with slightly swept-back double spreaders. The working sail area is just under 800 square feet. The design displacement is reportedly 20,500 pounds, translating into a respectable SA/D of 17.10.
RHAPSODY is a 2007 version of this venerable sailing yacht. She is the three cabin version with a Pullman style owner's berth and has two private heads. The vessel is very well equipped for extended cruising with a full cockpit enclosure, solar, inverter, new refrigeration/freezer, and a water-maker. Also included is a winter cover and a cabin heater. There is a brand-new mainsail, one lightly used RF genoa, and a second RF genoa.
The vessel is currently in the water and available for showing. Seller is motivated.
