Shallow draft and ICW compatible mast height make this the perfect choice for both offshore cruising and exploring coastal coves and shallow anchorages. The clear benefits of a raised deck salon are the brightness, visibility, and the enormous space created below the cabin sole for machinery, tankage, and storage. With the "galley up" in the salon this design floods both living and galley areas with natural light, creating a bright and spacious living space with panoramic views to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings.

This yacht has been meticulously cared for by its current technically knowledgeable owner, an experienced engineer. Recent anti-fouling paint, zincs and exterior detail make this vessel ready to get underway. Notably the standing rigging has been replaced, which provides peace of mind and confidence in this key area of structural integrity and performance.

With its attention to maintenance and upgraded rigging this Catalina represents a unique opportunity to own a reliable "ready to go" cruising vessel that has all the comfort features in one of the larger sailboats able to cruise the ICW. Owners will consider delivery assistance. This yacht is in excellent condition and ready for its next adventure!

Catalina Morgan 440 Manufacturer Provided Description

The 440 combines the rugged offshore features of Morgan with the comfort, ergonomics and style of a Catalina. In order to fully enjoy the view in the 440, the main cabin sole is raised to provide great visibility from the large, wide, cabin windows. All cruisers want speed under sail, easy motion and sure, predictable handling characteristics. The hull form of the 440 is conservative and sea-kindly and designed not to pound when going to weather or powering into seas. Offering the stability of a very low center of gravity, the 440 hull is stiff and comfortable. Representing the ideal cruising shape, the stem is raked to prevent damage when deploying or retrieving the anchor. The additional flare and buoyancy forward means dryer decks.

Interior Living Spaces

Salon and Galley

As you step down the companionway into the spacious 14 foot wide salon & galley you are struck by the amount of natural sunlight and the visibility of your surroundings. In order to fully enjoy scenic views, the main cabin sole is raised to provide optimum visibility from the large, wide, cabin windows.

To port is a fully equipped navigation station and a full-length settee. The settee’s middle section folds down to provide a varnished hardwood surface suitable for laptops or tablets. The navigation table (with storage below) has a comfortable sliding chair with a swivel base. Electric AC/DC panel has all breakers grouped by function.

On the starboard side is the full galley in a functional ‘U’ shape ideal for safe use in a seaway. Counter space is ample for cooking and meal preparation. The galley is equally convenient for service to the salon dining and cockpit areas. 

Forward of the galley is the slightly raised ‘U’ shaped dining area which seats 6 comfortably. The varnished dining table has folding corners which convert from a large to a smaller cocktail size table as needed. This table lowers with the push of a button to serve as a convertible berth for two. There is excellent storage space throughout the interior.
