  he Catalina 350 is a very versatile boat—fun for day sailing, coastal cruising and/or racing. You can have fun and do all for the price of one. Here's what I learned by crewing on Ron Greenberg and Joan Engelbach's Forever Young for two years. Day Sailing Although, at 35 feet, it is only a mid-range-size boat, it looks and feels much larger. That's because of its wide 13-foot beam, high freeboard and wide side decks. Coming aboard at the life line gates leads you into a spacious cockpit with 8' 6" seats, which are long enough for Shaq O'Neal to stretch out on and wide enough to support your thighs— and with high, contoured backrests for comfort. In the center, forward from the pedestal, is a drop-leaf table with a covered compartment on top to hold cameras, cell phones, sun block and other things you want close at hand but not sliding around. Under the starboard seat is a cavernous lazarette big enough for large fenders, a deflated dinghy (or person) to hide in. Many models have built-in shelves outboard.
