I have it on incredible reliable authority Catalina has some wicked new developments planned. These photos captured by telephoto lens while on recent sea trials. We would appreciate you confidence as these new developments are sensitive and we don't want to give the competition any advantage.

Are they offering this one at a discount? I think the slip fee's will be an advantage since you only need 1/2 the slip.
Thanks for posting! :)

It is amazing the lengths that some people will go to to keep their bottoms clean.

And you don't have to worry about where you stowed something. It is all at the bottom of the incline.

Adding more batteries to increase the house bank size can also correct the port list but, as seen in the photos putting all of them under the V berth is not the best idea.

Duane, I thought that was a prototype for the new Hunter boat!

Now let's be generous; it's the holiday season. There seems to be a huge amount of freeboard, though.
My guess is that this guy better not head out if there's any wind at all. It is a fun work of art, a variation of that Ripley Believe It Or Not upside-down building in Orlando.

In looking at the marina picture, I bet the surrounding stinkpotters are scratching their heads.

Great pictures but does anyone know why someone (and who?) went to all the trouble to build something like this? I assume its more than a Photoshop creation... or am I too gulible?

No, it is not Photoshop, but a French artist's work.
