I'm just getting started in this "hobby" and will be entering the Annual Mug Race on the St. Johns River in May. I am thinking of buying a set of sails for racing and need advise on what to buy. I've looked at North sails, but that's more than I want to invest. What are other alternatives that would be priced between a set of new sails from Catalina Direct and North racing sails?

Your going to find that Gus and Waters are two of the most used racing sails used on the C22. Both are very good sails.

Various ideas

First, I would joint Chip Ford's discussion group. http://www.chipford.com/ That would be where many racers would love to discuss this. Something from the Catalina Organization: http://www.main.org/catalina22/C22%20sails.htm I would say that this info may be slightly dated ~2001 but good to read. I also think that there was a recent change in the rules which allow fully battened mains.
