The Catapult fleet returned for its annual pilgrimage to the Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club at Bridlington in the East Riding of Yorkshire for its 2022 Northern Championships held over the August Bank Holiday weekend. As they have become accustomed over the years, the Catapult helms received a warm welcome and enjoyed excellent racing.

The Catapult Class Association also runs a personal handicap series in parallel with its TT and Championship Series. Only five points separated the top four helms, everyone of whom had won a race. But with two race wins to his credit it was Syd Gage sailing at his home club, the Royal Yorkshire YC, who won not only the Lilac Pennant as the winner of the event on handicap, but also the Magenta Pennant for leading the Series to date, having overtaken the previous leader, Stuart, by one point.
