Background
The boat sailed in California, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, Canada. A proven design that allowed its owners to enjoy frequent trips to San Francisco Bay and whale watching on Monterey Bay. It plied the waters of Lake Tahoe (even trailering from Idaho to compete in the 1997 Catalina 22 National Regatta) and enjoyed the backwaters of the California Delta. From the lakes and reservoirs of southern Idaho to Detroit Lake in Oregon, trailer sailing was the mainstay of Harmony's early career. Since coming to Washington in 1997, Harmony cruised the Columbia River and trailering north to cruise amongst the San Juan and Canadian Gulf Islands. Perfect for day sails and weekend overnight cruises, the boat was also taken on several extended cruises from 7-10 days.
Why did we sell the boat? While the skipper was happy to continue cruising and racing Harmony, the first mate wanted to move up to a larger boat.
Builder's Description
With over 13,000 Catalina 22's now sailing, we listened to a lot of owners and did extensive research before redesigning the most successful 22 footer ever built. The new Catalina 22 is based on the original proven hull and sail design; which allows all Catalina 22's to enjoy the large and active one design association.The deck incorporates crisp modern styling and a large family sized cockpit with comfortable angled seat backs, deep coamings, and a molded-in fuel locker. All halyards are lead aft to the cockpit for secure sail handling. The foredeck has a locker for the anchor and rode. The stanchions are outboard and the non-skid has been improved for easier movement around the deck.
