Catalina owners are known to have fierce brand loyalty. As it happens, they also throw a great party and their annual long weekend to connect and celebrate is coming at the end of April. If you have a Catalina, you’re invited!

Who doesn’t love a reason to get on the water in the spring? The promise of fun and fellowship in a fabulous location only makes it all the more enticing!

Whether you’ve been a Catalina owner for a few months or a few decades, the Pacific Northwest Catalina Owners group is hosting their annual Rendezvous at Roche Harbor Resort on San Juan Island. The four-day event takes place beginning April 24, 2025, and runs through April 27. There’s no limit on capacity, and the only fee is a $20 donation (per boat) to the group, plus the cost of moorage at Roche. Registration is open all the way up to the day before the event.


In the words of one of the organizers, Martin: This is an “Informal gathering of Catalina owners. We will have games, raffles, potlucks and presentations. Kids are very welcome.”

Sounds like fun to us. These photos offer a little of the festive flavor from last year’s Woodstock-themed rendezvous. You can expect a whole lot of Cheeseburgers in Paradise this year, since the theme for 2025 is Jimmy Buffet.
