Decision: Catalina or Bristol 22

[john gov]

Catalina also made a fixed keel version of the C-22 which I''m sure would be a pretty good sailor. . There is one for sale by private owner in Warwick, RI at Dickersons Marina. I think he''s looking to get $2,000. Let me know if you want further details.

Thanks, but if I go for the Catalina, I''ll go with the swing keel. The easy-on-easy-off trailering is what''s most attractive about that boat. Besides, I don''t think you can race a fixed-keel C22 in C22 class regattas. Thanks for the info though.

Bill Wolfram sailed from the US to Australia and back in a Bristol 22. Pretty impressive.

I'm a forum newbie so they won't let me post a link.
