Welcome to the new site!!

Welcome to the new home of the Catalina 36 International Association.

We are going to do what's called a soft launch and gradual migration from our old host to this one. From this point on, the new site will be the place to go for content (news, articles, classifieds, etc.). Over the next few months, I will be moving some of the more complex functions over including the store, membership directory and membership subscription. Until everything is complete, you can access this new site at http://www.c36ia.com; the old site remains at http://www.catalina36.org.

Allan Rex writes in with this upgrade for a cockpit table.

If anyone so desires and has some skill, they can build their own cockpit table using SS hardware from Edson. Attached are the schematics I used.

Some photos of the finished product can be viewed at Carina Upgrades.

by Tom Soko

After reading an article in one of the glossy sailing magazines a few years ago, I decided that I wanted to follow the author's advice and add a second, smaller bilge pump to Julandra. I wanted to minimize the amount of "backwash" that flowed back into the bilge after the pump turned off, and I wanted a smaller pump that would take care of the nuisance amounts of water in the bilge.

Check Your Fuel Fill Cap!

by Peter Cockle

I had a problem last season with a fuel bug which caused my engine to stop 15 miles out in a windless English Channel at dusk in the middle of the shipping lanes. Just what you need. I limped into a French port and temporarily fixed the problem.


Velveteen Rabbit in Eucott Bay

Velveteen Rabbit in Eucott Bay

In the summer of 2007, my wife and I cruised the N. British Columbia coast in our 1998 C36 MKII for 3 months. The scenery and wildlife were stunning and our appetites have been wetted to see more of this gorgeous area and to go on to Alaska. For a full accounting of our adventures take a look at our blog entries for May, June and July at http://capnrob.spaces.live.com/
