Catalina 25 total restoration, w/trailer

A totally restored 3 yr project ready to cruise 1978 Catalina 25 Swing keel Standard Rig #808. Located at the half way point in the Tenn-Tom Waterway. This boat was the retirement dream of a school teacher and spouse. Health issues force change in plan. We researched everything we could find on the ideal economical boat for cruising the Great Loop and Canadian Canals. This swing keel sailboat is ready to go. We are nondrinkers, nonsmokers with lots of experience as a merchant seaman, 50-ton captain, sailboating, sailboat maintenance, and refitting. (this was our 3rd sailboat). The boat has been set up with private V- berth and head with water tank, holding tank toilet, sink, hand shower with electric pressure pump and shower drain pump. privacy folding door. V-berth and Quarter berths have 12v outlet, 2 different V. charger outlets, lights, fan. new foam mattresses. All new equipment has auto helm, chart plotter, depth gauge, solar panels, VHF radios (mounted and hand-held), led lights, breakers switches wires, 9.8 electric start long shaft high thrust outboard, hard dingy, multiple hank on head sails, 3 anchors w/chain and new rodes, etc. well equipped and in good shape. Shore power connections and 30 amp cord, AC charger, solar charge controller and 200 watts of solar panels on a stern mounted rack. Galley small sink w/tank, foot pump, 2 burner stove, dishes, pots, 12v cooler. According to many experienced writers, this is the ideal boat for Coastal, ICW, canals and inland waters cruising. shallow draft 2.5 " keel up, 5 ' down. 35 ft air draft, with A-frame, set up for single handed on board stepping, approx 5800 lbs, dry. 5 fuel tanks and extra cans. We had this boat on the hard for 2.5 years and refinished hull from sanding down to a smooth gel coat, bottom barrier coated, painted, hull, topsides, and interior painted. Keel and all related hardware refinished or replaced. 5 Sails are good to new. New wood tiller. Good opportunity to learn sailboating, cruising, living aboard. In the water now and a good tandem trailer with 4 new tires and electric brakes is included. Over 4 years and $6,000 invested not counting many hours of loving labor. A sail away bargain for $3,000 or best offer.
