1980 Catalina 38

The Catalina 38 is a Sparkman & Stephens designed yacht improved by the legendary Frank Butler. The boat's hull was so well designed that it was chosen for the Congressional Cup, one of the most prestigious match racing regattas in the world.

A masthead sloop rig with aluminum spars, a raked stem and reverse transom, the Catalina 38 has an internally mounted spade rudder. Her cockpit is roomy with generous lazarettes that provide ample storage. The helm has a wheel mounted CPT autopilot, a dodger that provides shelter underway and new cockpit cushions to provide comfort underway and at anchor.

Below decks the spacious salon presents a nav station to starboard just forward of the quarter berth. A portside galley is aft of the U-shaped dinette and table accompanied by a bench settee to starboard. Forward of the salon is the portside head with shower across from starboard lockers and drawers. A comfortable V berth in the bow presents lockers, drawers and shelf storage to port and to starboard.

A well-loved example of this classic S&S design, Dawn Treader is hull #58. Offering sailing performance, nimble handling and comfortable cruising accommodations, this yacht is well found with over 20k recently invested, including NEW STANDING RIGGING in 2023!
