2000 Cat 34

[sgrieve]

I am looking at purchasing a 2000 Catalina 34. Are there any issues in particular I should be looking for that may be common to that model and year?

Not anything specific. Chainplates, which have very excellent access, are usually something too many skippers neglect as part of regular maintenance. The M35 engines have a few Universal bulletins you should research.

You should go visit the C34 website.

Good luck, nice boat.
