Congratulations.  You’ll like the boat. It’s faster than you think, once you get a feel for it. My old Bristol 30 was a 4-4.5 knot boat.  The 320 is more like 5 to 6.5 knots. I have no problem keeping up with sailboats of 35 to 40 feet.

On windy SF Bay, you’ll be reaching those speeds with a reefed main and partly rolled jib.

Hello All,

I’m new to the c320 group, having recently bought the 1998 Catalina 320 (#505), “Nebbia”, sailing the SF Bay. Renaming her “Argo” asap. Very clean survey, with 1k hours on the yanmar 3gm30, rerigged & new sails in 2019.

So far it’s been a full week of removing the PO’s unwanted stuff, maniacal cleaning, and a new head (jabco compact & all service lines). It’s time to enjoy some sailing!

I want to thank the list contributors, you made this purchase possible 😂
