Guac Amore is a beautiful example of a CAT 34 MKII,
she is replete with hunter green interior leather ultrasuede, teal
green dodger and canvas package. Her name belies her style and fits
the owner's personality (an Italian guy whom loves Guacamole) and
works for a boat from California, known for having the best avocados

We are waiting on our new boat to arrive. We picked the C34
for her room and standard features. This will be our fourth Catalina and we have enjoyed
them all. We plan the cruise with this boat and are looking forward to the extra room and
storage. Our last boat was a C28 that was to the North Channel and several other extended
cruises. We loved the boat but have grown out of it. We look forward to many satisfying
years with the C34. |

| How Boat Was Named |
We bought our 34 in December of 2005 after owning a
1983 C-30 for 10 years. We did the usual listing of Greek God names,
places, and things and came up with nothing that inspired us. Sailing
in Boston Harbor we have over 250 miles of coastline available from
the many harbor islands. The islands are populated with a variety
of flora and fawna, one of which is the Rosa Rugosa or 'beach rose'
as it is commonly called. The rose is a bright red when it blooms
and also produces the edible 'rose hips' that are also popular as
a perfume. The 'beach rose' gave my wife the idea for the name but
leaving out the word 'beach' as we didn't want any name with 'beach'
rock' or other hard, non-navigable surface in the name. So the name
of 'Ocean Rose' was adopted. The name is proudly displayed on both
the Port and Starboard stern quarters with a graphic of a rose between
the two words. We have a 9 year-old daughter and after I had just
put the name on the boat, she was standing by the boat and my wife
said "that's the real Ocean Rose". |

Boat was previously named "Jackalope". We
are the third owners. She's in very good condition and ready to go.
Prior to the 34, we had an '83 C-30 that we bought in 1994 and before
that we had a Tartan 27 for 13 years. Bought this boat and the C-30
through eastern Yacht Sales in Hingham MA. Great dealer! |

Seen other '99 owners talking about water running from
the engine area into the cabin when heeled over. Can anyone clarify
and elaborate on that and specifically what is done to alleviate it
with the modification? |
