There is more to sailing a Catalina 22 than racing! Cruising, whether for a day, a weekend, or as part of a week-long adventure, has always been a big part of the Catalina 22 National Sailing Association going all the way back to the early 1970s. The Cruising Club is a resource for those who enjoy cruising aboard their Catalina 22. Be sure to check out the following articles before heading out on your next adventure:
