Introducing Catalina's NEW 6 Series! The first Catalina 426 is coming to Kemah, Texas in June, 2024!

 

The 426 is an evolution of successful design, features and proportions: moderate beam carried well aft for a spacious cockpit; moderate freeboard for reduced windage; pleasing exterior appearance and an innovative and beautifully finished interior.

 

Like all Catalinas above 30 feet, the new Catalina 426 is robustly built to CE Category A standards, is NMMA Yacht Certified and follows all applicable American Boat and Yacht Council Standards, thus assuring the Catalina owner a quality, safe and durable yacht.
