a 1980-81 model year? , were there any options in that model. the pics look like it is a swing keel but hard to tell. the serial number doesn't specify?
thanks, James

Great boats. We had one for 13 years, '87 to '98. It was an '81 model. SRFK.

One of the great parts about this boat is the great owners association.

You don't have to reinvent the wheel when you buy it!

Good luck.

Great boat, had an 81 for 6 years.

CTYK is short for Catalina yachts, production number 2027 (which should also be marked on your mainsail), and the boat was built in Feb. of 1981.
