Description: Frank Butler had a dream. In July 1969, he designed and built the first Catalina 22 in North Hollywood, California. This petite, family-friendly cruising sailing sloop was his fledgling company’s inaugural boat. Met with runaway success, Catalina Yachts launched the Catalina 27 and shortly thereafter the Catalina 30. By February 1975, Butler’s projected construction of 100 Catalina 22s had been exceeded, with an astonishing 5,000 hulls in the water. The Catalina is one of the most popular sailboats on the water, and what many used to learn to sail. This drawing is a celebration of that shared experience.
