Catalina 27 are junk?

Yep.



Dave, why don't you explain to all of us why the Catalina

27, one of
the most popular and well loved family sailors of all

time, is junk.
Jack Horner and pretty much every other expert considers

it to be an
excellent starter boat. My Cat 27 was a ton of fun and

only cost me
5K!!! It had more room than your boat as well.
A guy who owns a boat with a 50% chance of blisters

shouldn't throw
stones. My 1973 Catalina never had blisters and is still

sailing today.

As an unscientific lark, I just googled the following:

"cs 27" "circumnavigation" = 26 hits

"catalina 27" "circumnavigation" = 2140 hits

Make of it whatever you like. It's all in fun, anyway.


I would be interested to know with which keel Dave's boat

is fitted.
