About

Designed by Gerry Douglas and built by Catalina Yachts in the USA, the Catalina 309 has built a strong reputation as one of the most successful models in the Catalina range, admired for her spacious accommodation, easy handling and comfortable coastal cruising manners. Lightly Salted is a one owner 2008 model offered for sale by her original owner, who has had her from new in 2009 after being delivered on a ship. She comes complete with an extensive collection of original owner's manuals from purchase, giving her next owner full documentation and history from day one.
