First sailing pics of my new to me salvage/refurbed Capri 22 sailboat “Fireball”.
Vets Cup 11/11/24. Basil Rowland with me.
Too much wind, wing keel, reefed and blown sails made for a lousy race, but an incredible sail back to Salt Ponds Marina.
Thx Basil!!
I recently purchased a ‘97 Catalina Capri 22 for a fun little boat. Had hoped it was a really sweet deal. (Nothing more expensive than a cheap boat.)
Turns out the hull and below decks are fine; the standing rigging replacement issues are front and center.
The people at Catalina Direct are knowledgeable, very patient and polite. They know everything about Capri’s; assuming they do just as well on the larger boats. I’ve needed their help all the way back to the early 90’s when Lowell, the owner, was the primary guy.
Highly recommend to Catalina owners everywhere.

FOOD ALERT! Hampton Roads.
Just had dinner at The Deadrise in Ft Monroe. “Blackened Catfish Jambalaya”is spicy, and includes shrimp and basmati rice.
Just a great meal and value at $26. Highly recommend.
