Shamrock 5 is a 1984 Catalina 25 tall rig sloop with a fixed keel, traditional interior layout, and pop-top for added headroom/ventilation.
The Catalina 25 is truly an American classic and one of the most popular mid-sized sloops on the water today. It's a spacious, user-friendly family cruiser or weekend racer. The Catalina 25 was developed to do many things, but it does one thing exceptionally well -- it "teaches you to sail."
Shamrock 5's traditional interior layout is designed to provide the comfort, style and performance of a much larger boat. She has a very roomy cabin for its size, a long waterline, fixed keel, and tall rig to increase sail area for better light air performance.
She has recently been upgraded and currently calls Annapolis, MD home.
