Catalina Morgan 440 2005

Chasing Sunsets, Hull #3 of the exclusive 60 Catalina Morgan 440 Deck Salon yachts ever constructed, boasts a coveted low hull number, a mark of distinction cherished by serious sailors. Crafted by designer Gerry Douglas, the CM440 seamlessly merges exclusivity with a rich heritage. Upon its launch, it was honored with Cruising World’s title of "Boat of the Year – Best Production Cruiser 40–45’" in 2005, receiving acclaim for its perfect harmony of comfort, seaworthiness, and practicality. Veteran sailor John Kretschmer, during Sailing Magazine’s field test, praised the 440's exceptional balance, asserting that it functions as a genuine cruising vessel rather than just a weekend plaything. He emphasized, "The 440’s hull shape is meant for blue water, it is not a weekend warrior masquerading as an offshore boat." With over 300,000 offshore miles and more than 20 ocean crossings under his belt, Kretschmer also commended its livability and craftsmanship: "There is no disputing that the 440 will be a very accommodating boat. However, what impressed me during our SAILING Magazine Boat Test is how well the sailing systems are laid out, how nimble the boat was underway, and the overall high quality of fit and finish."
