Catalina 545
Description
CRUISING WORLD MAGAZINE'S BOAT OF THE YEAR 2020
Overall Boat of the Year
"It's a major upgrade from anything they've ever built. I think it's not only significantly bigger, but better than anything they've done".
- Cruising World Magazine
Best Full-Size Cruiser Over 55 Feet
"I liked it as soon as I got on it. I like the looks of it. I like the cockpit layout. The designer & builder, Gerry Douglas, did an excellent job explaining how he put the boat together and the choices that he made. I was impressed by the overall layout above decks and below. We didn't have a ton of wind when we sailed it, but it acquitted itself nicely. It seemed like a pretty straight forward rig that my wife and I could handle pretty comfortably. In other words, it wasn't complicated".

SAIL MAGAZINE'S BEST BOAT WINNER 2020
Best Large Monohull 51ft & Above Winner & Best Systems Winner
"In the eyes of our panel of judges, the reason the new Catalina 545 stood out as this year’s best large monohull is because of the way its collection of engineering and design features all worked together to result in a truly outstanding vessel. Beyond that, although the company is including the new flagship in its 5-Series, Catalina fans will immediately notice some eyebrow-raising differences between it and the rest of the line.”
“Put simply, the boat not only has all those same systems today’s sailors have come to expect, but they are all both admirably well laid out and provided with excellent access points for maintenance and easier servicing down the road—a design consideration that can be as important as the installations themselves."
