2002 Catalina 36' _{(10.97 m)}

With nearly 3,000 boats sold over the first 26 years, the Catalina 36 is arguably the most popular sailboat of this size ever built. The MK II shares the same principal dimensions as the original, although the beam is carried further aft, resulting in a significantly larger cockpit and a more comfortable and roomy quarter berth cabin. On deck, the Catalina 36 features wide side decks, double lifelines, and a molded toe rail for safety. There is an anchor locker and stainless steel roller at the bow for easy handling and storage of ground tackle. All halyards are led to winches at the companionway. The cockpit of the MK II model is certainly roomier than earlier models, but both have long and comfortable seating, and wheel steering is at the stern. The current MK II has a walkthrough transom with a swim platform and stainless steel boarding ladder. 

 There is a V-berth forward followed by a head with shower to port and hanging locker and storage to starboard. 

The main saloon has a U-shaped dinette to port and two seats separated by a small table to starboard. The galley is aft to port and is complete with a double stainless steel sink, two-burner stove and oven, top-loading icebox, and adequate storage. A small navigation station is opposite the galley, followed by a quarter-berth cabin with an athwartship double berth. The size and access to the quarter-berth cabin are the most notably improved by the extended beam of the MK II model. 

The Catalina 36 is rigged as a masthead sloop with a single spreader mast and fore and aft lower shrouds.
