The Catalina 27 is a proven design for single handed racing  or as a family cruiser.
 Even by today's standards, these boats are quite roomy for a 27-footer. The designers provided this room and decent cruising accommodations in a package that remains good looking and "yacht-like" to most.  PHRF rating of 210 means that the Catalina 27 can be compet­itive on Wednesday nights. It is an ideal boat for the way most of us use our boats, that is day sailing and week­end outings.
The Catalina 27 was a "big" boat when it was first introduced in 1971. In fact, at the time it was the queen of the Catalina fleet. This translates into an almost flat sheer line with a large but nicely blended cabin trunk and cockpit coamings. There is plenty of free­board and nearly 9 feet of beam, which, of course, creates space below. Under the water, the high­ aspect custom fin keel sweeps aft, as does the custom spade rudder.
The Catalina 27 hull is solid fiberglass and the thick­ness tapers significantly from the waterline up. 
On deck, the Catalina 27 has a comfortable cockpit with a locker to port and aft lazarette. The companionway is enormous and there is not a bridge deck to speak of. The headsail tracks are inboard, allowing close sheeting angles. The forward hatch mounts flush, which is nice looking and saves a few toe bruises.
Down below, the interior is spacious and user-friendly. The huge companionway makes stepping below a breeze. The layout includes a V-berth forward fol­lowed by an enclosed head. The saloon has two opposing settees with drop down table, and the galley is aft to port which features an ice box and stove. This configuration includes plenty of storage cabinets. Headroom is about 6 feet and ven­tilation is excellent.
