Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28.

"My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton.

My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell.

So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!!

Subject: Replacement Tiller

I've sailed the boat with the original tiller for many years, a J-24 tiller as it's first replacement for about 16 years, and then now the Catalina 22 tiller. I've sailed with this latest one for a year

I still have my original tiller and I compared it to the latest one and it is indeed the exact same shape as the Catalina 22 tiller. It feels better to me than the J24 tiller which is several inches higher and I think a few inches shorter.

Prices do vary, shop around. Here is another post with some additional stores that carry these:
