2012 Chris Craft Catalina 29 Express

Alexander Marine Australia are pleased to present this 2012 Chris Craft Catalina 29 Express to the market as central agents.

The Chris Craft Catalina 29 Express is a sleek and versatile centre-console sports dayboat, combining classic Chris Craft styling with modern performance and practical functionality. She showcases enhanced teak accents and timeless detailing beyond the standard finish, including rich teak trim to the swim platform, helm footpads, and console features, delivering a warmer, more traditional aesthetic that pays homage to Chris Craft's storied design heritage.

Perfect for day trips, coastal cruising, or serious angling, this Catalina 29 Express offers effortless handling, premium fit-and-finish, and all the systems needed for a comfortable time on the water. She balances exhilarating performance with precise control, ideal for owners who value both style and capability.

Boarding from the teak-laid swim platform, you immediately notice the thoughtful layout and practicality. A removable swim ladder provides easy water access, while a foldaway aft seat opens a full walk-around deck, perfect for fishing or entertaining. Freshwater and saltwater washdown points add convenience, and underseat refrigerated storage keeps drinks and snacks chilled. Underfloor kill tanks and a live well ensure this vessel is well-prepared for serious angling.

The helm station is designed for both comfort and control. A full suite of Garmin electronics, including a GPS plotter, radar, VHF, and autopilot, ensures confident navigation, while a Rode chain counter and Maxwell stainless steel anchor simplify anchoring. Lenco trim tabs provide smooth, stable rides whether cruising or approaching the dock. Ergonomically placed controls and clear sightlines make navigating effortless, and the Fusion sound system provides an enjoyable ambience throughout the cockpit.

The bow seating easily converts into a sun lounge or dining area with a central table, creating a versatile space for relaxation or entertaining guests. Generous seating and thoughtful deck access make moving forward safe and convenient, while handrails and walk-around decks enhance usability.

For convenience on longer days, the day head is neatly tucked under the console and features a Tecma electric toilet. Clever storage compartments throughout the cockpit and under seats keep gear, tackle, and provisions secure and easily accessible.

This Catalina is powered by twin Mercury 250 Verado outboards, providing exceptional acceleration, top-end performance, and precise low-speed handling. Access to mechanical systems is straightforward, making routine checks and maintenance simple.

With her blend of classic styling, functional layout, and capable performance, this Catalina 29 Express is a standout day-boat ready for action, from fishing excursions to weekend cruising with family and friends. Recently serviced and antifouled, she presents as turn-key and ready to go for her next owner to step aboard and enjoy immediately.
