Keep in mind Milt, on a "leaner" (monohull), especially a Catalina 22, you will be seeing the world mostly at 4 knots. And, that's on a good day. That will shorten your day sail to about a quarter of the distance you've been used to going. I've sailed both types of boats extensively, and I never want to sail a monohull again. You need to try out a bigger cat. That one you have is pretty small. There are a lot of boats out there, and I'm sure one would fill your needs. Keep looking -- a Hobie Getaway may be more what you need.

Good luck.
