Bruce & List,
 
First of all I want to say that Cathy and I had a major disagreement in
deciding on a new boat.  She wanted the 35 and I wanted the 36, I was able
to win out strictly for technical reasons.  I didn't like the way the 35 was
built (I think in Florida), I didn't like the workmanship, the plastic door
frames etc.  I didn't like what seemed to me an excessively high freeboard.
I did not sail the 35, but my gut instinct told me I wouldn't be happy with
the way she sailed.  The 36 on the other hand is a classic it, to me is just
like my 320 but bigger.  The workmanship is the old Catalina high standard,
and it feels cozy inside not this voluminous main cabin like they have on
the 35, which by the way was what attracted Cathy to the 35.
 
My hull number is 2295, which to me means that this boat is probably the
most built one in Catalina's line.  I don't know how many they are building,
but I will be going down to the factory to see how the top is attached to
the hull etc.  I will ask then what the annual throughput for the 36 is.
 
I ordered:
 
cockpit cushions $593
Microwave $322
Cockpit dodger with side handholds $1953
Folding leather helm $428
3 blade prop $256
VHF Radio $833
Auto Pilot $5823
Wind Point/Speed $1695
2 kw Radar $2452
C 80 Chart Plotter $4479
In boom furling main $9040
Electric winch $3000
Poly Planner Stereo $2000
 
The boat is $144,756
 
She will be equiped with a 325 hp International.  Right now that is all I
know.

Hi John
I think it was Orlando who asked about your new 36 footer?
Tell all on this party line what you have bought, please.
Info from on the C36 MarkII is from a 1997 brochure!   <<<<<<<<THAT SHOULD
READ "Info on" 
Would love to know the Engine, Rig, Keel depth, true LOA, extras you have or

will add.
How many do the sell these days? How long from the order to delivery?
As you can see I do like the 36.

cheers, good sailing and happy commissioning!
