2005 Catalina 28 MkII | 29ft

A WONDERFUL GREAT LAKES CRUISER: The Robust Catalina 28mkII

Rarely available on Georgian Bay, this beautifully maintained 2005 Catalina 28mkII is the ideal family cruiser, combining the legendary comfort and robust build quality of Catalina Yachts with modern features and essential upgrades.

Located in Lion's Head, Ontario, on the scenic Bruce Peninsula, this vessel features the highly desirable Wing Keel (3'9" Draft), providing superior stability and the ability to explore the shallow, pristine anchorages of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay that deeper keels cannot reach.

This particular Catalina 28mkII is in good condition and boasts a spacious interior, excellent handling characteristics, and numerous recent upgrades that make her a truly turnkey sailboat.

Catalina Yachts: A Legacy of Cruising Excellence

Designed by Gerry Douglas and built by Catalina Yachts in the United States, the 28mkII is celebrated for its roomy, functional cockpit (with Walk-Through Transom and Edson Pedestal Steering) and its well-designed interior. This model maximizes space with an athwartships aft berth, a full galley with Stove and Oven, and a dedicated marine head, all packed into an easily managed 29-foot LOA. It truly provides the amenities of a much larger boat, making it one of the most popular coastal cruisers ever built.
