Catalina Capri 26
Catalina Capri 26 is a 26 ′ 1 ″ / 8 m monohull sailboat built by Catalina Yachts starting in 1990.
Rig and Sails
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3
- SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D : Displacement in pounds.
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Wing/shoal draft:3.42’/1.05m.

| was designed to be a performance family boat. The design features a beamy cabin with lots of head room, walk through transom in the cockpit and nimble performance on the race course or while cruising. There over 300 boats built when the last hull left the mold in 1997. Options included either an inboard diesel engine or a stern mounted bracket for an outboard engine with keel choices of a fin or shoal wing keel. The Capri is an incredibly stable ride and a boat you'll love to sail year after year. |

Anyone have real-life weight of their Capri 26?
Brad WilliamsAhoy all, I have a new (to me) Capri 26 -- and I have just several questions. 1) The listed dry weight is 5100 lbs or there abouts. But, this is the weight Catalina lists whether or not the boat has a deisel (which mine does). Has anyone put their boat and trailer on the scales? 2) Comparing notes on a similar, but slightly newer Capri 26 at the boat storage yare, I see that I have a trailer that is rated for a maximum weight (trailer and boat) of 7000 lbs. This seems light when the other guy's trailer is rated at 9999 lbs. (both are TrailRite) The trailers seem identicle except that his tires and wheels are bigger.....bigger axels also perhaps. When buying new....you don't get your choice of trailers...or do you? Sometime between 1990 and about 1994, did Catalina decide they needed the bigger trailer or what? Thanks. Brad Mike GurleyWEIGHT OF BOAT I weighed my boat several years ago. The weight is still because of equipment on board at the time. I estimated that all gear including safety gear, galley, water, diesel anchor and line, weighted in at 250lbs. The boat weight is 6530lbs. My Capri is a 1994 fin, inboard, marine head, hot water system. I weighed it with all sails and canvas on board the water tank had 2 inches in it so the lines were full and the hot water tank was full, 6 gallons. the diesel tank had about 3 gallons in it. I have never had an explanation as to the factory weight of 5100. As for my trailer it has the large wheels I believe it is rated at 10,000. It weighs 1480lbs. When I get it out of storage this spring (not coming soon enough) I will get back with you. I would be interested when you weigh yours what the results are. Mike Thanks Mike....let me get this right. So, boat at 6500 lbs or so, and trailer at 1480 lbs....you are hauling 8,000 lbs down the highway, would that sound right? My boat can't be far off yours in weight. I am beginning to become concerned with this max 7000 lb trailer -- the trailer has to be at least 1000 lbs, as soon as the boat hits the 6,000 lb mark, I'm over the specs. I may call Catalina and TrailRite both and ask them. Anyway...thanks for the reply. I'm right down the road from you...in Denver. I slip at Chatfield. Is your boat "Recess?" Brad Capri26 Hi Brad: Dave Shattler here. Glad to see you made it to Denver ok. (I owned your boat before Kevin, and talked to your at Elk Rapids.)For some reason, trailer weight of 1200 lbs sticks in my mind. I used to guess that the actual weight of the Capri26 was about 6200-6500 lbs with all tanks full and all of our "junk" on board. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions.

Which Sailboat? Catalina (Capri) 14.2 Review The Catalina Capri 14.2, known later as simply the Catalina 14.2, is an excellent sport sailboat and day sailer oriented toward family and youth use. The boat was designed by Ted Carpentier and Frank Butler of Catalina Yachts . Catalina derived the boat from the Omega 14 produced by Frank Butler’s Coronado Yachts prior to the formation of Catalina Yachts. After the formation of Catalina Yachts, the Omega 14 design was modified by adding a foredeck and a cuddy beneath the foredeck to create the Capri 14.2. Since 1983, over 5,200 Catalina 14.2s have been built. Production continues . While Catalina 14.2s are frequently used for family cruising, the boat can provide an exhilarating sailing experience due to its semi-planing hull and clearly sporting sail-area-to-displacement ratio of 36. As a family sport boat and day sailer, the Catalina 14.2 is primarily composed of a large cockpit that easily holds 4 adults. One owner reports sailing inland lakes and bays of the Outer Banks in the eastern U.S. with his wife and 3 children aboard, and with the cuddy and areas beneath the cockpit seats laden with camping supplies. Forward of the dominant cockpit, a large cuddy cabin provides storage for day sail, picnic and camping supplies, batteries, and emergency equipment. As expected for a sport boat or day sailer of this size, the cuddy provides no berths, head, or galley. (If berths, galley, or head are important to you, consider the Catalina 22 , which is also easily trailered.)  The Catalina 14.2 benefits from its large production volume, long production run, that its manufacturer is still in business, and a plethora of parts continue to be available from the manufacturer and Catalina Direct . Active Catalina 14.2 class racing fleets and events exist but are limited compared to some other small sailboats such as Flying Scots, Moths, and Lasers. Presumably, this is because of the boat’s intended purpose and reputation as a family sport boat and day sailer, rather than a class racing boat. INDENTIFYING VARIOUS CATALINA 14.2 MODELS Three models of the Catalina 14.2 have been produced since 1983. The different models are popularly deemed “Mod 1”, “Mod 2”, and “Mod 3”. The Mod 1 models have a single open space below decks and came from the factory with a marine plywood hatch to enclose the cuddy and the rest of the space. The Mod 2 models, introduced around 1990, had a fiberglass box glued inside the entrance of the cuddy, which while preventing water intrusion into the cuddy and the rest of the hull in the event of a capsize, also made the potential storage space in the cuddy inaccessible and made maintenance of the inside of the hull more difficult. Mod 2 models had a canvas covering over the hatch to hide the box. Six years later in 1996, Catalina introduced the Mod 3, which removed the fiberglass box and included a water-tight bulkhead at the aft end of the cuddy, making for three nearly water tight areas in the hull, including the cuddy with the hatch installed and a space under each cockpit seat. Mod 3 boats were delivered with a more durable and watertight plastic hatch for the cuddy. Also on the Mod 3 boats, the wooden splash guards at the aft end of the deck where removed and instead the deck was simply rounded up from the forward end of the cockpit coamings.  The Catalina 14.2 hull is solid hand-laid fiberglass. The deck is also solid fiberglass laminate with a molded-in non-skid pattern. The deck is attached to the hull in Catalina’s standard shoebox design. Unlike larger Catalina boats intended for more rigorous sea conditions, on Mod 1 and Mod 2 models the deck is fastened to the hull only with chemical bonding – there are no mechanical fasteners. On Mod 3 boats, Catalina also through-bolted the hull-to-deck joint. Older Catalina 14.2s may suffer damage of the hull-to-deck joint so that the water-tightness of the joint is compromised. After suffering such damage, many owners strengthen the joint with mechanical fasteners with relative ease, as the joint is easily accessible at the gunwale. Due to the design of the Catalina 14.2’s gunwale and exposed hull-to-deck joint, installation of a rub rail can serve to protect the hull-to-deck joint from damage. Installation is straightforward. Several rub rails from Taco Metals in Miami, Florida work well, particularly this white flexible vinyl model with white flexible vinyl insert . The hull is stiffened with several plywood stringers beneath the cockpit, which also support the cockpit sole, reducing flex under foot. The seats normally flex under foot, which while initially unsettling, provides for a more comfortable ride. Due to the more rounded and thus stronger foredeck and the additional bulkhead at the aft end of the cuddy, Mod 3 boats are stiffer than Mod 1 and Mod 2 boats. While wood stringers could be cause for alarm, few Catalina 14.2s see enough water left in the hull to cause rot. If rot is discovered, replacing the stringers can be difficult due to tight working conditions inside the hull. A few owners with rotted stringers reported solving the problem by knocking out the old wood and pouring water-resistant closed-cell expandable foam under the cockpit sole and seats. Depending on the density of the foam selected, positive buoyancy is an additional benefit of such a repair. Water-resistant closed-cell foam is crucial for this application. The TotalBoat Liquid Urethane Foam Kit, 6 Lb Density, Closed Cell for Flotation & Reinforcement works well for this application, providing both structural strength and positive buoyancy.  As delivered from the factory, the Catalina 14.2 lacks positive buoyancy materials in the hull. If the hull is allowed to fill with water, the boat will sink. On Mod 1 and Mod 3 boats, securing the cuddy hatch board fast whenever underway is paramount. Catalina fitted foam plugs in the end of the mast on later boats, intended to provide some buoyancy in the mast to prevent turtling if capsized. However, the relatively broad beam of the boat limits the effectiveness of this design because most of the mast remains out of the water unless turtled. Many owners fit Hobie Baby Bob flotation bulbs (available on Amazon) to the top of their masts so that if the boat is knocked down, the boat does not turtle. KEEL CONFIGURATIONS AND RUDDER The vast majority of Catalina 14.2s were delivered with a pivoting centerboard that kicks up if grounded. The centerboard is held in place when down by a shock cord that is connected from the aft end of the top of the centerboard to the transom at the end of the cockpit. The rudder also kicks up. Earlier boats have a solid wood centerboard while later boats have a foam-cored fiberglass centerboard. Rudders are wood or foam-cored encapsulated in fiberglass. Solid HDPE rudders are available from Catalina Direct. A medium-aspect fixed keel was also offered that added 200 lbs of ballast to the boat, which makes her slower but more stable, closer to an older-style traditional day sailer. Catalina named the boats with the fixed keel the Catalina 14.2 K. As a semi-planing boat displacing little water, the centerboard model requires no centerboard trunk. The centerboard simply slides through a slot with only a few inches separating the floor of the cockpit from the water below. With enough speed, water can spray up through this slot into the cockpit. Catalina Direct offers a canvas gasket to surround the centerboard in the slot, which prevents this spray. The Catalina 14.2 is rigged a as a fractional sloop with a self-tacking jib. The mast is anodized aluminum and supported by a stainless steel headstay and single set of swept-back anodized aluminum spreaders with stainless steel shrouds. The shrouds include adjustable brackets rather than turnbuckles that make rig adjustments quick if not entirely precise. However, the headstay includes a turnbuckle which can be used to achieve precise rig tuning. There is no backstay, which makes un-stepping the mast easier and frees up the cockpit under sail. The rig is very light-weight so that one person can ease the mast down when un-stepping and push it up when stepping, although another person is handy to guide the mast with the forestay. All other rigging hardware is stainless steel. In 2012, Catalina changed to a Selden made rig. From the factory, the boom has no uphaul so that when the mainsail is dropped, the boom falls into the cockpit. Some owners install an uphaul, rigid boom vang, or boom kicker to prevent this. As appropriate with a family sport boat or day sailer, all control lines are easily accessible from the cockpit. The mainsheet is managed from a stout spring-mounted pivoting block and jam cleat in the center of the cockpit. Jib sheets are managed from jam cleats on the side decks. The side decks also include a jib car track and cars that allow precise adjustment of jib sheeting angle. With sails of this size, no winches are necessary.  The cockpit of the Catalina 14.2 offers good sole depth, seat width, and coaming height for relative comfort in a sport oriented boat. The coaming height and side deck height may be considered low for some less interested in an exciting sail, or more accustomed to day sails in a Flying Scot or a more traditional day sailer design. The cockpit seats are long enough to sleep upon. The relatively small surface area of the cockpit sole, cockpit seats, side decks, and forward deck are small enough to prevent much flex. Forward of the cockpit above the cuddy is a solid deck which is handy when dealing with the jib although feels less than secure in rough water. The side decks are reasonably wide as well. The only brightwork on the Catalina 14.2 comprised splash guards installed at the front of the cockpit and above the hatch to the cuddy, only on Mod 1 and Mod 2 boats. These boards are easily removed for complete refinishing if necessary. Mod 3 boats had this brightwork eliminated.  The Catalina 14.2 can be a very exciting boat to sail. Hiking straps were installed throughout the cockpit from the factory. With its semi-planing hull, the boat achieves speeds great in excess of a displacement hull sailing boat. Its relatively deep centerboard and rudder provide excellent grip for pointing to windward. Riding close to the water, the boat’s occupants easily sense the speed at which they glide over the water. Due to its semi-planing hull and small size (and like most small sailboats), the Catalina 14.2’s pointing ability suffers immensely with blown out or otherwise worn out sails. AUXILIARY POWER  The Catalina 14.2 did not come from the factory with any auxiliary propulsion, but an outboard motor mount was an option. Many owners use rowing paddles for auxiliary propulsion, but due to the beam of the boat and the orientation of the side decks, paddles are difficult to use. Many owners install small outboards, 1-3 h.p. are more than adequate for propelling the boat. Electric trolling motors are a popular choice for auxiliary propulsion with a battery installed at the aft end of the cockpit against the transom or in the cuddy. Either way, the battery should be installed in a watertight battery box secured in place with mounting hardware. Due to the easily-driven semi-planing hull, electric trolling motors are an effective means for auxiliary propulsion, with only the smallest 30 thrust-lbs models necessary for adequate propulsion. For owners interested in sailing into a headwind off a beach or against a tide, auxiliary propulsion is paramount.  The Catalina 14.2 is easy to trailer with nearly any vehicle due to its light weight of 340 lbs. Due to its light weight, trailers require only a single axle. The relatively flat bottom and retractable centerboard make trailers intended for power boats work as an effective trailer. Trailering is easy due to the boat’s simple rig – only the forestay must be disconnected to unstep the mast. In addition to an excellent family sport boat and day sailer, the Catalina 14.2 also makes an interesting tender for the right liveaboard or cruiser. With its weight of 340 lbs, the boat can be rigged for davits or simply towed if the sailor is not against towing a dinghy. Despite being a semi-planing boat and having an open slot for the centerboard in the cockpit sole, the Catalina 14.2 with its wide flat bottom has more initial stability than most tenders and can be well laden with crew and supplies without shipping water through the slot. However as the boat is laden, its ability to point to windward suffers greatly. The same owner who reports sailing with his family, children, and camping supplies, also reports being unable to point better than a beam reach without auxiliary power as the boat was so overladen. With a larger electric trolling motor, large battery installed, and combined with a solar panel for charging the battery, the Catalina 14.2 can power through adverse currents with excellent if not unlimited range.  Due to the excellent build quality and simplicity of the Catalina 14.2, the ready availability of spare parts, and that the manufacturer is still in business producing new Catalina 14.2s, resale values of the Catalina 14.2 remain high. New boats sell for over $6,000. Nevertheless, neglected Catalina 14.2s can be had on the used boat market at a steep discount, making the boat a potentially excellent value on the used market. Prices vary widely between $1,500 and $4,500, depending on the year of the boat, installed accessories like motors, condition of the sails, hull condition, the condition of the trailer if included with the boat. Neglected boats can be made ship shape for a modicum of investment compared with larger boats and typical tenders. At the time of writing, only two Catalina 14.2s are available on Yachtworld.com , but many making good options are available on Craigslist.

Great article – thanks! I believe I have heard that the Capri 14.2 Mod 1 had a hollow transom and that the transom was reinforced (made solid) on a later mod (2 or 3). Which mod was this, and do you know the specs of how much thrust or weight each mod can handle? Leave a comment Cancel replyBlog at WordPress.com. 
Catalina Capri 26 for Sea of Cortez
My longer term plans call for heading south and around into the Sea of Cortez for the season. My question concerns weather or not my current boat, a Capri 26, is suitable or should I look elsewhere? I am intrigued by the looks and reputation of the Pacific Seacraft 27 (but not by cost). Any experiences in similar boats of of similar boats seen there would be appreciated. I''ve just partnered on a Dana 24 (the smaller sister to the Pacific Seacraft Orion 27'') We found a used boat at a fair price (for a Dana). Yes the Pacific Seacraft vessels are expensive, but very strong. Trailering from inland to the Sea of Cortez, San Juans/inside passage, and Bahamas are on the agenda for this boat.

Advantages: Good interior room - I've had 6 adult spend the night in it. Can be towed - The mine weighs aprox 5k pounds empty, but the fin keel is a little heavier, I guess.
It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5
The Capri 26 was designed in response to customer feedback from owners of smaller Capri series sailboats. Prospective buyers were looking for a slightly bigger boat with more "large boat" comforts and enough space for a family, while retaining the capability to be road transported by boat trailer.
