She is indeed a beauty!

Welcome to the forum. The C250 owners here can be very helpful. Don't be shy about asking questions!

Thanks Steve...

Compliments to the previous owner for keeping a clean vessel.

Sailing background is all here in Los Angeles... Cal 25 then a Newport 30, then a side trip to the dark side - a 34 foot sedan trawler... now back to sail.

Looking forward to the newer modern design and construction of the 2007 250... that trawler, with its teak decks, was a real lesson in boat maintenance.

OK, I confess that I love trawlers. Most respect sailboats and are older sailors that can no longer physically sail anymore but still love the water

Yup--Grand Bankses and Mainships appeal to a different breed from Vikings and Sea Rays! Some of us $+!nkp*++ers aren't so bad...

Carl,

I noticed the trailer has an extendable mast stanchion near the hitch.
Did the previous owner give you the stern mast stanchion?
It's a removable post that fits in the rudder gudgeons.

Hi Russ...

No.

I am aware of the device you are referring to as it is available as an option on Catalina Direct.

I'll have a helper available in a few weeks when its time to raise the mast.

All the best,

Carl
