I’m looking to buy a 2003 Catalina 36 MKII. I’m planning on looking at the boat in person in a couple weeks. Looking for a checklist of things I should check or ask about. I’m particularly interested in learning about common issues owners have with this boat.

There are some known port leaking problem. Check the engine and see if much modification has been done with the rig. If so it may need to be restored.
It is a costal cruiser. If it is a fin keel and standard mast you can go into wind as high as 30 degrees.
