Chris Craft 26 Catalina Series Boat Review

Chris Craft 26 Catalina Series Boats

A Center Console Vessel to be Proud Of

When you think of a standard center console vessel, you tend to think of a boat that is perfect for fishing and entertaining, but not always as stylish as you might want. As these are the most popular style of boats in Florida, it is no surprise that Chris Craft has taken it upon themselves to produce a center console that has their unique style features. The Chris Craft 26 Catalina Series boats for sale have become one of the most sought-after center console vessels in the state and here is a bit about the boat to tempt you.

Power and Performance

Chris Craft prides itself on giving their customers everything they could want from the boats they produce. That includes providing an array of engine options to suit the individual customer. With the Chris Craft 26 Catalina Series, the customer is able to choose from four available engine options. For those who prefer the Mercury brand, the choices are a single 350 Verado Four Stroke or for a bit more thrust and power, twin Mercury Verado 200 Four Stroke Engines. Yamaha is another trusted brand of boat motors and their options include the Single 350 Four Stroke and the Twin 200 Four Strokes as well. No matter which one you choose, additional options are available as well such as painting the engines to match the boat, Yamaha Command Link Plus, and Optimus 360 Joystick for convenience.

Comfort Throughout

One of the most notable features of any Chris Craft boats for sale are their attention to the small details when it comes to comfort. All of the seats within this boat are designed with the same care for the customer’s comfort. From the fold away rear bench seat that can seat two or three people comfortably to the hem seating area with flip up bolster with room for two people, you are never without a comfortable place to relax. Additional seating is available in front of the center console as well as within the bow area. The extra special aspect of the bow seating area is that it is fully convertible, so when you want wrap around seating, the areas can be used in the standard way. When it is time for dining, the dining table comes up from the floor, but can also be stopped at the seating height to convert the entire space into a full lounger for maximum comfort.

Essentials

For a long deep sea excursion, there is always a need for a tucked away space to take care of personal business. Onboard the Chris Craft 26 Catalina Series boats, the head is located within the center console. That is not surprising as most center consoles today do maintain a centrally located head area. Like the standard center console vessel, this area allows for easy access to the interior electrical components of the controls of the boat, but this area is certainly not standard. Most center consoles allow for access to the head space through a side entrance. It can be difficult to access through the small side door and therefore the design is impractical. The designers at Chris Craft have included a front access head compartment. The center console seating area swings wide open and holds securely in the open position while you enter and exit the space. Inside the head is a rather large space to use the facilities or freshen up with both a toilet and sink available. With this boat, you will always look your best and have all of your needs met. That is the commitment that Chris Craft puts in all of their boats.
