I find looking at the statistics interesting that the top 3 boats on SBO under Catalina Forum are:

Catalina 22, 3,667 Discussions, 42,651 Messages
Catalina 30, 2,930 Discussions, 23,038 Messages
Catalina 310, 1,721 Discussions, 16, 863 Messages

Not very scientific, but interesting too look at as reference points, given the C310 is one of the lowest production quantities. I think this forum is amazing value and I find a lot of questions just searching. I know I have spent way too much time reading the old posts.

John, the reason for that is simple. This forum hosts the C310 association information. Other Catalinas either have their own separate websites (most) or don't at all (one or two). That's why.

Otherwise, yes, you have a great boat. :)

Ah the C34, it has a great forum for sure, you know I was hooked on a C34 first! We did like the C34, has to be one of the best bang for the buck out there for sure!

Also the distribution of the posts by posters... there are a handful of VERY prolific 310 posters here. A quick guess would have the majority of the number attributed to them.

Very cool, that time and distance and we are in the gulf! Can't take the time now with teenagers but out 10 year plan is to take the C310 out to the gulf and cruise around FL and beyond.
