Catalina 22, 1977 sailboat for sale Boat is in Santa Fe, NM, has been since 1992, so there’s never a rust problem. Retractable keel Draft, keel up, 20”; keel down, 5’0’’ Ballast 550 lb. Displacement approx 2250 lb Sail area 212 sq. ft. Mast height 25’ L.O.A 21’6” L.O.W. 19’4” Beam 7’8’’
Mainsail, Jib, Genoa, Storm jib, all workable, Genoa virtually new The mainsheet block is due for replacement. Couldn’t decide on one. Mainsail cover overdue for replacement. No roller furling.
Trailer is heavy duty, reconditioned in 2007 and sandblasted. It’s in good condition except for one bunk board which needs to be secured and both bunk boards should have new carpet covering. This naturally has to be done when the boat is off the trailer, when we were sailing, not working.
Extension tongue for shallow launch. Trailer lights need to be checked. Tires good, with spare.
The Honda motor was new in 1993 and was serviced yearly up to three years ago. Since then it has not been run and will need servicing. For lake sailing near mountains it was an absolute necessity, and it performed beautifully. It, the double-reefed main and the storm jib made the squalls much less hazardous. Honda Model BF8AMCA; Engine No. 1240981

The Catalina was bought second-hand in San Diego in 1992. It had been sailing off the West coast until then.

The boat has been in the weather for several years and the gelcoat is rough, however there are no cracks in the hull. In the cockpit sole there is an area with cracking. Several years ago the stem was repaired and the bow eye seat strongly reinforced with fiberglass. The stem looks as good as new now, and is stronger.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
The CATALINA 22 is one of the most popular sailboats ever in anything close to this size,. 15,000 boats sold (2009)
It has been built in different plants around the world..(Known in Australia as the BOOMAROO 22.)
(A fixed keel version introduced in the early 1970’s)
A ‘New Design’ was introduced in 1986 (featuring an opt. winged keel), and MARK II in 1995.
The CATALINA 22 SPORT was released in 2003. (Originally called the CAPRI 22 swing keel.)
From a new “fairer” mold though the hull design is the same as the original CATALINA 22.
Thanks to former Catalina dealer Joe Rose and a number of others for providing additional information.
