Hello,
I just have my Capri for two weeks now and almost capsized it once. I never sailed a boat which had a hatch like the Capri before.
So, I'm not sure if you can / should sail it with the hatch open and what the effects would be if it capsizes.
Will it still float? Are there flotation devices integrated in the hull?
What is the drain plug for at the transom?
I thought at first that it is to get the water out of the "forecastle", but that seems not to be the case.
Please excuse my unprofessional use of your language. English is not my first tongue and I just started to built up my sailing vocabulary.
