About

 

To Our Catalina Family,

For me, the Catalina story has always been about people as much as it is about boats. My mom, Sharon Day, began working alongside Frank Butler over 50 years ago. As Frank’s right hand, she helped guide Catalina Yachts through decades of growth and eventually served as President of the company before her recent retirement.

Sharon also brought Frank the idea of creating a dedicated store for Catalina owners. With Frank’s blessing, Catalina Yachts Store was born—a place where owners could find the parts, gear, and support they needed to fully enjoy their boats. This also served as a way for Sharon to have her family join her at the boat shows, further reinforcing the family-oriented atmosphere that she cultivated for the Catalina brand.

I grew up in the middle of that story, and today I’m proud to carry on the tradition my parents began. While Catalina Yachts has entered a new chapter under new ownership, Catalina Yachts Store remains an independent, family-run business. Our passion hasn’t changed, and neither has our commitment to serving the thousands of Catalina owners who share in this incredible community.

Thank you for trusting us and for being part of the Catalina family. I look forward to continuing this journey with you.

With gratitude,
Holly Hannah
