Advocate Boat | 44' Catalina 2011

The Catalina 445 is a well-rounded cruiser offering a strong balance of comfort, usability, and performance. Below deck, she features a spacious 3-cabin, 2-head layout with a large salon, dedicated navigation station, and a functional galley designed for extended cruising. On deck, the cockpit is optimized for both sailing and entertaining, with twin helms, a folding table, and easy access to the sugar scoop transom.

Sail handling is straightforward and efficient, with all control lines led aft to electric winches, complemented by in-mast furling for both the mainsail and headsail. With an ICW-friendly air draft and shoal draft configuration, she is well-suited for East Coast and Bahamas cruising.

Advocate stands out for its low usage and exceptionally clean condition. Currently located at Safe Harbor Charleston City Marina, she is fully serviced and ready to go. The vessel was hauled in May 2025 for a comprehensive bottom job, including media blasting, epoxy barrier coating, and fresh bottom paint. The hull was also washed and waxed.
