The Catalina 22 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with teak wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a vertical transom, a large self-bailing cockpit, with under-seat lockers, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It has two winches for the jibsheets. Sails include a jib, 150% genoa and a spinnaker.[1][3][4]

Models have been built with folding swing keels, wing keels and fin keels.[1][4]

The boat is normally fitted with a small Шаблон:Convert outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][4]

Accommodations include a forward "V" berth with a privacy curtain and a port berth with an optional head that can be stowed underneath. The main cabin area includes a dinette table and a molded fiberglass galley that rolls away under the cockpit space. The foredeck features an opening hatch for ventilation.

The Catalina was inducted into the now-defunct Sail America American Sailboat Hall of Fame in 1995. In honoring the design the hall cited, "Simplicity, trailerability, durability and the endearing and enduring qualities of the Catalina 22 helped to launch the trailer sailing market. Although many other designs have entered the fray, this pocket cruiser remains at the top of the mobile sailing heap ... The Catalina 22 has defined the pocket-cruising trailerable class for the last 25 years. With stalwart sailing qualities, an exceptional builder, fanatic owner support and a strong class association, the boat's future is assured."[17]

The design was named Sail magazine's "best small cruiser for trailering".[3]
