The wooden spreaders were standard. We replaced our '83 Catalina's spreaders about five years ago because they had rotted in the sun/weather. We found some spruce at a lumber yard, used a band saw to cut to shape, and planed down the thickness. We covered them with many coats of marine paint, they are holding up well. Not a tough job...

Aluminum spreaders

Catalina direct has a kit to refit aluminum spreaders to your mast. If nothing else, replacing the wooden spreaders on my C-30 eased my mind. I have included a link to these but others are available from different sources.
