My partner and I have a 1980 Catalina 22. We sail Lake Pepin which is part of the Mississippi River. We love our time on the water.

Ahh, brings back memories. ⛵️ (Hated those gusty days.) Congrats on 2nd place. 🥈

Tiny sandwiches really change the overall strategy.

Well done, I remember days on Deep Creek Lake, in Western Md. Racing have a ball, much like you were. Think I need another boat...

Life jackets are awesome

Thanks! Only the fun stuff makes it into the videos though, back to the office on Monday…

Thanks for sharing! Great video, btw! 11:43, the Melges with the red sail passing close to the other boat is Lucky Dog, the boat I race on.

Fun video to watch! I haven’t been interested in racing my 28 Newport, but perhaps that could change.

‘73 sounds like a nice low hill number!

Sailing: Waaaaaay to much work. (Definitely only for smart people) I’ll stick with them motor boats- no thinking required.

Ramming speed!!

Hey wait this lake looks familiar. I'm Juan's Crew and I know exactly who was taking first.

I just got a 22 catalina, would it be okay to just use the motor in like a river / bay until I learn to sail , or would it not have enough power etx

@ZeroToAwesome

Жыл бұрын

Depends on the size of the motor. If you have a current in the River or tide in the bay might want to make certain you have enough HP to make it back into the docks/ramp.

I’m still confused?! Did we catch any fish😂

The most delicious of fish were caught.

Where did you get those spacers for your jib cam cleats?

Catalina Direct, they bolt all the way through the fiberglass combings.

what speed were you getting?

At 6:19, was that a "Wisker Pole" on a Genoa to run wing on wing? I know nothing about sailboats but just purchased a '85 C-22 that came with nothing but a main sail.
