I've had 40' boats and smaller. 15' Montgomery, 16' Compac, and NOW a 1975 22' Catalina. I've had a Catalina 34' that we bought new, so I know of the quality and LOVE the layout of the 22' and slide out galley. She'll be hauled out tomorrow for a bottom job (haven't seen her bottom yet!). Then I'll try out my NEW Tohatsu 5 HP. (I guess Catalina suggests 4 - 6 HP). Should use .25 GPH at 85% of hull speed - 23 MPG or more/2 Gallons in an 8 hr. day. Can't wait.
