1985 Chris-Craft 381 Catalina
Twin MerCruiser 340s | Onan 6.5 Marine Genset
The 1985 Chris-Craft 381 Catalina is a classic American motor yacht built during an era when Chris-Craft was known for producing solid, comfortable cruisers with traditional styling and proven construction. With its recognizable profile, substantial 14-foot beam, and double-cabin design, the 381 Catalina remains a popular choice for boaters who appreciate the character of an older Chris-Craft without giving up the comforts needed for weekends on the water.
This Catalina is powered by twin MerCruiser 340 HP gasoline inboards, delivering a combined 680 HP through a traditional direct-drive setup. An Onan 6.5 Marine Genset provides onboard power when away from shore, adding convenience for overnight stays and longer trips.
Below deck, the two-stateroom layout includes a private aft master and a separate forward guest stateroom. A full galley, two heads, comfortable salon, and plenty of storage make the boat well suited for cruising with family and friends. The warm wood finishes throughout the cabin also give the interior the traditional feel you expect from a Chris-Craft of this era.
Up top, the raised helm provides good visibility while underway, while the aft deck creates a comfortable spot to relax, entertain, or enjoy an evening at the marina. Wide side decks make moving forward easier when handling lines, docking, or anchoring.
