Folks,
I thought I would always inherit my Dad's CS 33 here in Toronto. Unfortunately, he has
sold her.
I now realize I was more attached to sailing than I thought, and would like to begin the search for my own
boat.
I have always loved the look of the S&S
Catalina 38 but have never sailed on one. I am wondering if there are any on the Canadian side of the
great lakes to have a look at in person.
I'd love to find a mid 80's
Catalina 38 with the
shoal keel for
great lakes sailing but would love to find someone who can advise on this
boat, or perhaps recommend others like it?
I'm very handy and can handle any engine/electrical/plumbing issues, but would be looking for a solid boat to sail around
Lake Ontario out of Toronto.
Additionally, I have a wife new to sailing, so the ideal boat would be something she would enjoy
learning on. Finally, I'd love to raise my 8 year old son to love sailing, and to create something we can do together into the future.
Your overall thoughts on this boat would be very valuable. Also, if anyone has any suggestions on how I might find someone with a boat like this to have a peek at, I'd be very grateful!
Happy Sailing!
