Catalina Morgan 440 2005

As Hull #3 of only 60 Catalina Morgan 440 Deck Salon yachts ever produced, Chasing Sunsets boasts a coveted low hull number from a limited series, a distinction highly valued by dedicated sailors. Designed by Gerry Douglas, the CM440 has always embodied exclusivity and a strong pedigree. Upon its debut, it earned Cruising World’s prestigious title of 'Boat of the Year – Best Production Cruiser 40–45’' in 2005, receiving acclaim for its remarkable combination of comfort, seaworthiness, and practical design. Veteran sailor John Kretschmer, in Sailing Magazine’s field test, praised the 440 for its exceptional balance, emphasizing that it truly performs as a cruising vessel rather than just a weekend toy. He remarked, 'The 440’s hull shape is designed for blue water; it is not a weekend warrior pretending to be an offshore boat.' With over 300,000 offshore miles and more than 20 ocean crossings under his belt, Kretschmer also noted the boat's quality and livability, stating, 'The 440 will certainly be a very accommodating vessel. However, what impressed me most during our SAILING Magazine Boat Test was the thoughtful layout of the sailing systems, the boat's agility while underway, and the overall high standard of craftsmanship and finish.'
