Chris-Craft Debuts New Catalina 31 at Palm Beach Boat Show

Chris-Crafts’ new Catalina 31 debuted at the Palm Beach International Boat Show March 19 – 23, 2025. The fresh redesign builds on the popular Catalina 30, delivering modern upgrades, thoughtful enhancements and a newly designed hardtop for the standard pilothouse top, offering improved functionality and aesthetics.

A large bow area offers plenty of space to socialize and relax with wraparound seating, drink holders, speakers and inductive chargers. A new electrical and control system integrates the latest CZone digital switching system, advanced control battery management and remote access features, controlled through the Chris Craft user interface.

Well-planned storage includes storage drawers at the helm, a washdown hose cabinet, tip out trash can and additional storage in the cabin. New design enhancements include teak accent helm seats, upgraded stainless steel bolster hinges and armrests, and custom foam packs for enhanced comfort.

A spacious swim platform eliminates the motor well and offers easy access to the water with updated rigging and a new dive door. “Every boat we design and manufacture takes into mind our family of boat owners and future owners; the Catalina 31 was created with enhancements that we know our owners will greatly enjoy,” says Ron Berman, vice president of engineering at Chris-Craft. “Building upon our reputation of classic elegance, design excellence, and exceptional craftsmanship, the Catalina 31 is an exciting new addition to our portfolio.”
