Looking For A C34

[Glenn]

Hello All,
Like others, I'm in the market for a Catalina 34, so I've been dropping in on this board from time to time.  What a great source of information both for someone new to the line and owners alike.  After seeing the response to other posts, I figured it was time for me to post my request.

I live in the Sacramento area and my current boat is located in delta, which is where I'd move my new boat to.  I'd like to find an '88 or '89, somewhere in the Northern California area.  I'm open to other years, since my limits are price based more than anything else.  I've researched fin keels vs shoal keels, tall rig  vs standard rig, I'm open to any combination.

If you have been thinking of selling your C34, please leave a post here, or drop me an e-mail at: Glenn@tailgaters.com.  I want to thank all of you who participate in this site.  The information contained made it easy for me to get answers to the questions I've had reagading the C34.  This lead to my decision to search for one of these wonderful sailing vessels.  Thanks again for your help.

If you haven't yet, try Latitude 38.  Frank had Moose (#220) up for sale for the past two months (out of South Beach Harbor in San Francisco).

You could also try Catalina dealers, like Farallone yachts in Alameda.  They advertise in Latitude 38, and you could alwyas give them a call to see if one came in mid-month.

I have always had good luck with yachtworld.com.  Use the advance search feature, make your selections.  19 hits on any year C34 in CA, 3 of which have sale pending.
