Head failure (due to my son and a matchbox car)
Water Pump
Bilge Pump(s)
Lights (running light bulb)
Chartplotter (twice)
How many of those things would have failed at the dock?
Starter, maybe the charger, maybe the bilge pump. The rest would be items you better have a backup part or system for.
What failures have you guys seen? What do you carry as spares? And would a warranty even be worth anything?

Um, well, uh, gee, you know, well, how do you say politely ... you did buy a Catalina after all, so I'm not sure what you expected.
