It offers good sailing, comfortable accommodations, one-design fleets and active owner's groups.The Catalina 27 is an American classic. First launched in 1971, more than 6,600 boats were built during a 20-year production run, making it possibly the best-selling 27-footer of all time. Frank Butler, the 27's co-designer, as well as the founder and driving force behind Catalina Yachts, has a uncanny knack for creating boats that people love ... Catalina has built more than 60,000 boats, more than any other American sailboat company.In many ways, the 27 was the model for a design and construction philosophy that continues to serve Catalina today. Catalina knows its customers and what they want. The company has an impressive ratio of repeat buyers, which is the ultimate compliment for any builder."This boat is 44 years old, but has a lot of life in her.The boat is for sale AS-IS WHERE IS.A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of the close of the auction.  Title will be delivered after full payment is received.The next step in perusing your sailing dreams awaits.  Go small and go now.  I'll be happy to answer any questions.Thanks you for looking at my auction and good luck!
