Jayco Eagle 312BHOK vs Coachmen Catalina Legacy Edition 323BHDSCK
The difference that matters
Around 36 ft each, both bunkhouses sleep eight or nine, but they sit in different weight classes. The Eagle 312BHOK is 9,790 lb dry with a 1,220 lb hitch and an 11,995 lb GVWR. The Catalina 323BHDSCK is 8,256 lb dry with a 1,046 lb hitch and a 9,846 lb GVWR. Cargo capacity is 2,205 lb on the Jayco against 1,590 lb.
The Eagle spends that weight on build quality and weather. It has the Climate Shield cold-weather package with a heated, ducted underbelly, a 5 in Magnum Truss roof with plywood decking, 50 amp service with ducted A/C, a 60K tankless water heater and 200 W of solar. Its fresh tank is bigger, 52 gal against 38.
The Catalina sleeps nine with two slides and a bunk room built around a double loft bed, a stowable single bunk and a futon with its own entertainment center. It adds a full-size outdoor camp kitchen and solar prep.
