On deck, the Catalina 320 features a wide beam carried well aft, creating a generous cockpit with comfortable seating for family and guests. The helm is well positioned for excellent visibility, and sail handling is straightforward, making the boat manageable for couples or short-handed sailing. Wide side decks and solid handholds make moving forward safe and secure whether underway or at the dock.

Below, the interior feels remarkably open for a 32-foot boat. The salon features a large U-shaped dinette to port with a straight settee opposite, creating a comfortable gathering space for relaxing or entertaining. Rich teak joinery and ample natural light from multiple opening ports and hatches create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The well-equipped galley is positioned near the companionway for convenience underway and includes generous counter space, a deep sink, refrigeration, and a gimbaled stove and oven. Just aft is a spacious quarter berth that easily accommodates two adults.

Forward, the private owner's stateroom features a large V-berth with ample storage and hanging locker space. The roomy head compartment includes a separate shower area which is an uncommon feature in boats of this size.

Under sail, the Catalina 320 is known for its balanced helm and solid cruising performance. Whether you're day sailing on the bay or planning longer coastal passages, she delivers confidence and comfort.

With Catalina’s reputation for quality construction, excellent sailing manners, and a thoughtfully designed interior, the Catalina 320 remains one of the most sought-after cruising sailboats in her class.
