Has anyone had an opportunity to sail both the catalina 34 Mark II and the new 350, and if so, what, if any, differences did you notice in how they sailed? I''ve read all the discussions on Catalinas, and have decided on one of these two models. Someone told me that the 350 has a different feel to it than the 34 Mark II, since on the 350 the designers had to move the bulkhead forward to make room for the forward shower. I''m not really sure what this means or how it affects sail performance.

Have you considered the C-36 MK II. The 36 is a very nice sailing boat. I was originally looking at a 34 but made the mistake of sailing the 36 and the 34 and bought the 36. The 36 is a much stiffer boat than the 34 and the 36 also has virtually no weather helm. I can''t speak to the 350 but if you like the space of the 350 you should look at the 36.
