Jim's Little Boat is dedicated to helping beginning sailors and providing a video reference for work on their own boats. There are more than 50 videos in the Jim's Little Boat archives of You Tube. While some of the videos are very specific to Catalina 22 sailboats, most are general and apply to all small mono-hull sailboats.

Nice, nine 4x4's stacked on each side of the front.

I used to do home repair. All those are the off cut from the posts.

Hey Jim my name is Jim (people call me James) and I just bought a 1970 Catalina 22 hull number 258. I’m in South Puget Sound and could use some pointers on getting started with this restoration project. Any chance I can bug you about the boat?

Why not just leave it on the trailer?

[@jimslittleboat4388]

Because it is a pain in the rear and you can't do a good job. :) I just prefer to have it easy to reach and work on.

[@jonathanlloyd2306]

I guess so, but it's a lot of what looks like risky work. What if that beam did role . . . !
