CAN YOU HELP OUT YOUR ASSOCIATION? – The c350IA Forum runs under a language called phpBB (BB = BulletinBoard) and from time to time we have problems with it that our limited skillset Committee cannot fix. If you are a wiz at phpBB, or if you know someone who is who might be willing to help us from time to time, could you please get in touch with the Association at c350ia@catalina350.com
The Catalina 350 International Association was developed in 2002 for furthering the enjoyment of ownership of a Catalina 350 and to promote camaraderie between owners. The Association is supported by Catalina Yachts and publishes articles of interest to members in the “Mainsheet” magazine. The specific goals are to:
- provide the Catalina owners magazine “Mainsheet” to its members;
- co-ordinate and promote cruising and social activities;
- provide sources of information for maintenance and care of the Catalina 350;
- promote the education of safe boating; and
- co-operate with other yachting organizations.
This website provides links to a variety of topics of interest and value to all C350 owners. Some sections require registration as a member before allowing access, other sections are open to the public.
C350IA Update – Please Note –
The Catalina Yachts business has been sold and there is currently uncertainty about its future but all Catalina Owners remain hopeful. Mainsheet, the magazine for Catalina owners of all models, is back in production through Holly Hannah at the Catalina Yachts Store. It is available as a digital magazine to all members of Catalina Associations. Two editions of Mainsheet have now been published and a link is available to members by request to c350ia@catalina350.com.
The C350IA is undergoing a Bridge reset with some very long standing members standing down and new volunteers stepping forward to take their place and while fees to belong to the C350IA were suspended for 2026 they will restart from January 1st, 2027. We are communicating with members via bulk email and asking those persons on our mailing list to confirm their ongoing interest in being part of the C350IA. So far only 66 of the 150 persons on the list have responded. If you have not seen recent emails from Catalina350.com please check your spam folder or just email to c350ia@catalina350.com stating that you do have an ongoing interest in participating.
We are still accepting new members but you will not be asked to pay the fee in 2026. We will send out emails in December 2026 asking members to go to the website and make a payment by PayPal to become financial members in 2027. The principle benefit of the C350iA remains the Forum, the wealth of information accumulated there over the past 20+ years, and the ability to converse through the Forum with fellow C350 owners to resolve any problems you may have with your boat. The cost of membership of the C350IA is to cover the costs of running the website and the Forum.
