I should be grateful for any information regarding the existence of a Channel Islands 22 Owners` Club or Association.

Pretty sure there isn't one which is a shame as it's an excellent boat. I used to have one and read about 10 years ago of someone starting a CI22 owners club, wrote off to him but heard nothing!

Longjohnsilver,
Many thanks for your reply to my posting. Agree that there does not appeat to be an owners`club and that it is a shame for such a characterful little boat. I too remember an enquiry some years ago to which I also responde but heard nothing.

Have you asked the company?

Hello Max, and welcome,

Excellent signature thingy, couldn't have put it better myself.


I think the company who made them is no more. Could be wrong though. Great little boat.

They were built in Jersey by a guy called Silva Yates but I don't think he is in business any more.

Yes Silva Yates was the manufacturer, they were still made until a few years ago but then were scrapped because of the CE rules which did not allow non self draining decks.

All stuff and nonsense as the CI 22 is one of the safest and most sea worthy little boats ever made IMHO.
