The Shultz Easter Catalina

The Shultz Easter Catalina contest from Long Beach to Avalon has long been popular due to its destination and the fact that Hollywood Yacht Club secures moorings in Avalon Harbor for all registered entrants. In previous years the seas have been kind to us and the weather in Avalon quite pleasant. The trophy awards are usually held at one of the restaurants in Avalon.
