The Photo Album

The Webmaster periodically updates the Photo Album. If you would like to submit photos of your fleet's activities, please send them to your Catalina 42 International Association's Webmaster, Norm Perron. Though we can scan color photos, better imaging is possible if the photos are sent to us directly as "GIF" or "JPG" files ("JPG" files are preferable.

Webmaster's Note: Seattle Film Works (a mail order film processing center, (800)FILMWORKS or cs@filmworks.com) will process your photos as prints or slides, and also provide them on diskette (they'll even throw in the software to view your photos on your PC and can e-mail your "electronic" pictures to you over the Internet. Once your photos are in electronic format, it's easy to convert them to "JPG" format and then e-mail them to the Webmaster. For more information, please visit Seattle Filmworks Webpage at (http://www.filmworks.com)).

Fleet #1's Spring Cruise To Catalina Island

Click on the pictures for larger images.

Fleet #1 sailed its first official Spring Cruise to Howlands Cove, Catalina Island, So. California, as guests of Jim and Cindi Goodrich (Moonspun, #101) and the Los Angeles Yacht Club. A total of eight boats joined the festivities, which culminated in an evening social gathering on the beach, complete with BBQ and tall sea tales. Leading the story telling were National Commodore Bob Zoller (Z Life, #11), seated on the right, and Vice Commodore Bert Heidenreich (Starefire,#20), seated on the left.

Eight boats of the Catalina 42 Association's Fleet #1 rest on moorings in Howlands Cove, Catalina Island (the Catalina Station for the Los Angeles Yacht Club). A party-crashing Catalina 30 slipped into the cove late at night and remained un-intimidated while surrounded by eight of her big sisters.

The trip home on Sunday was great fun, with the Goodrich's Moonspun hitting ten knots under a beam reach, flying a 155% #1 Genoa. Malocclusion (#305), owned by Harvey and Chris Duryee, was doing its impersonation of the dive scene from "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea".
