Hello Steve, seems like my wife and I were only married yesterday. How time flies. You bought yourself a great boat. What year did you get? Thanks for the comment.
Have to sand and re-apply varnish almost every year. We don’t trailer far, so don’t usually strap down. I am hoping to make a trip a little farther this summer, we definitely be applying a strap then.
Fantastic video. I have a 22' Pandora which is a fairly similar boat to your's. I notice that your's has no guard rails? Love the drone shots btw. I have a Parrot Anafi which I plan to use for similar purposes to you.
Hello Howard Bull, when we bought the boat the lifelines and stanchions had been removed. We decided to not replace them. We generally don't sail in rough weather so feel that it is safe. Our next "larger dream sailboat" will have them. You should check out the rest of our videos. I used to fly a Parrot Bebop. You would get a kick out of the footage. Thanks for the comment.
Happy anniversary and thanks for sharing this great video. Only one suggestion ( I’m old…can’t help my self sometimes!!) ….Always a very good idea to put some shoes on when docking the boat. It doesn’t take much to crush a few toes or pick up a nasty sliver! I hope the next 23 are even better for you!!!
One year when we were putting the boat away for the winter Jami stubbed her toe on the keel box inside the cabin. To her surprise the toe was completely sideways. Ouch. Definitely good advice to wear some shoes while on the boat.
Hello Charl Randall, the item you are talking about keeps the tiller straight. You can adjust the tightness level depending on how much you want the tiller to move. Kind of acts like an auto pilot once you are sailing in the direction you want. Hope this helps.
Hello Web, We just put things back the way they were after the restoration. We have never been in another Cat 22 so couldn't tell you what is different about it.
@@SailingLandlocked when you pull the tiller over it tightens up the mainsail. It may well be genius. the tiller is adjusting the traveller which is adjusting the mainsail.
Hi guys, Mike Forbes here, Marina Del Rey, Ca. I am thrilled we found your channel, just great footage with your family on a very nice sailboat. We just took up sailing last year, and purchased a pristine 1982 Cape Dory 22 here in SoCal. I like your interior space, very open which is great. What is your overall weight, and the keel? Is your keel like a daggerboard since you trailer her? Our boat weighs 3200 lbs dry with a 1400 lb lead keel. We are trying to learn fast after my ASA 101 course last year just after purchasing the boat. Here ya go, our first solo sail from Marina Del Rey to Catalina Island. I picked a bad weather window...lol, lesson learned. th-cam.com/video/C52Su4uuiTs/w-d-xo.html
Hello Mike, Our 1983 Catalina has a total displacement of 2,490lb and carries 800lb in the swing keel. The swing keel has a steel cable which allows it to be raised and lowered quite easy. It works out well in allowing us to get into areas otherwise not accessible, not to mention trailering. We are still locked in ice. 20 degrees below zero last night. Can't wait for some warmer weather.

Thanks John, we had a great week. Drone footage is from an Autel Evo.
Nice drone shots !
Glad you liked it.
Congrats on your 23rd Anniversary! That is a blessing. I just bought a 22 and I can't wait to get is ship shape for the season!

A ta shing baba 30 is my dream boat
Chad, your boat is in great shape! You must work hard on that teak….
If you trailer a lot have you ever put a strap around the cockpit area?
Have to sand and re-apply varnish almost every year. We don’t trailer far, so don’t usually strap down. I am hoping to make a trip a little farther this summer, we definitely be applying a strap then.
Looking good! Makes me want to get a Catalina 22.
They are a great boat. I would highly recommend. Thanks for watching.
Nice video.....might buy a boat.. soon
Hello@@johnbiggins4864 thank you for the comment. We are still loving our boat.
I have one that's coming available soon. High desert West coast.
@@johnbiggins4864 I have a '74 Venture 25 for sale....

Perhaps I missed it, but may I ask where you are sailing? Great video by the way.
Leech Lake. Thanks for the comment.

Lovely video, I have a 21ft Corribee.😁⛵️
Thanks for the comment. What type of keel does your Corribee have. Our Catalina has a swing keel. It make trailering so much easier.
Sailing Landlocked it’s a bilge keel as we live on the Exe estuary 😁
happy annaversery.
A very nice way to sped it.
I have posted my first vedio as an intro to my boat.
A Hood 23. Just type,
Sv Freedomstar.
Gerard.
Thanks Gerard, we will have to check out your video.
Beautiful boat and boating! I spied that new trailer winch (I need a new one). Where did you purchase it and would you recommend it?
Been a while since purchased, but thinking it came from Amazon. It has worked well.
Whats on the TIller Handle, Looks like rope connected to the Main Sheet Car ??? how does it work

i think they call them tiller tamer.just a line that can be tightened to hold the tiller where you want it
Is this trip in the apostle islands?
No it is not the Apostle Islands. We hope to travel there one up coming summer. The footage is from Leech Lake in Northern MN.
What is going on with your traveller? I have been sailing Cat 22 for 40 yrs and never seen anyone setup the traveller in that manner.
Hello Web, We just put things back the way they were after the restoration. We have never been in another Cat 22 so couldn't tell you what is different about it.
I am restoring my 22 she is a 1976 model. Looking for more photos of your boat. Mine has never had handrails on her
