Frank Butler, founder of Catalina Yachts, is one of the biggest boat designers and manufacturers in the world. == The Early Wesco years == Born in California in 1928, he started his career in the Navy, and went to college, but found college difficult and did not graduate. He opened his own machine shop called Wesco Tool, where he experienced great success making airplane parts. In the late 1950s Frank started sailing dinghies, and as his family grew he desired a bigger boat. He set his eyes on the 21’ Victory Sloop, designed by Naval Architect Ted Carpenter and first launched in 1959. He contracted with the boat builder to make him one, but the builder ran out of funds. Butler gave the builder a loan. Unable to repay the debt, the builder gave Butler the tooling to continue building the boat himself. In 1962 after 126 Victory 21 boats were manufactured, the rights for the Victory 21 were sold to Frank Butler who founded a second company he named Wesco Marine.
