Congratulations! I have a friend who has that boat, and she can really make it smoke!

Re: New Boat Owner
Aloha and welcome aboard!
My first boat was a Catalina 22 with a fixed fin keel and pop-top. Really liked it and had a lot of great experiences aboard her.
Only time it smoked is when I mixed a hot batch of fiberglass resin to make a battery box support behind the companion way ladder. (First time with fiberglass in hot weather)
