1985 Catalina 36 AMICUSOne of the most popular designs by Catalina Yachts, with 1,766 built, the 36 is perfect for cruising to the Chesapeake in the summer, south to Florida in the winter, or for weekends and weeks aboard to escape the daily grind. AMICUS is the Tall Rig, shallower draft wing keel model just right for Eastern NC waters, her current home. She is ideal for a family or couple, and rigged for ease of single-handing. Day sail, cruise, or race, AMICUS is equally suited for the task.
