Ebay

Ebay. To some people here that is a dirty word. But I use it. Most of the time it works out. One thing I found is when checking up on some of the ebay retailers is that they are boat junk yards autioning off there stuff from different parts of the country. Where are you located? You might find one near you. You might also want to try seaching for business that sell used boat parts in your state at someplace like www.sitchboard.com. Good luck.

Catalina direct is the only game in town

They don't carry used parts but if you own a Catalina 22, 25, 250, 27, or 30 then go to Catalinadirect.com and call for their catalog. You'll be amazed at how many parts for your boat, including improved aftermarket stuff, is available. The prices on most things are so reasonable that it makes looking for used not worth the trouble.

Catalina Direct is NOT the only game in town.

go to catalinayachts.com and contact customer service for a parts list for your model. Or phone them directly. You'll find most replacement parts for all models. One of the main reasons our boats have remained popular is the outstanding factory support.

So Cal.... Minney's Yacht Surplus

has a lot of cool stuff... cheap too.

FYI, Catalina Direct IS Catalina

It's my understanding that Catalina Direct is run by a California Catalina dealer who functions as the Catalina-sanctioned aftermarket parts distributor for those models of Catalinas (remember that the 22 and 25 are no longer in production and the 27 has undergone many evolutions). In any event there are ample replacement parts to be had through whichever manner you get to them.

Catalina Direct in Sacramento is a dealer

as Rich mentioned, the Catalina Factory is in Woodland Hills (So. Calif.) I've ordered parts from C Direct, haven't ordered from factory but have spoken with others who have and have picked up their orders at the factory in the past. Try calling factory and asking for parts department, pretty sure they will sell direct to consumer still.
