have a Capri 14.2 but don't know how to rig it !! Can anyone tell me how or point me to a website, manual etc. any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks,
Several members are WAY more adept (than I) at the design/racing of this boat. Many of your questions will be answered.
This is an unforgivingly fast, and tender boat, that can be tamed easily, with a little of practical preparation. You chose the BEST small boat you could have. It will prepare you for much bigger, or if you decide to, reward you for years to come.
This is my first post. I picked up my Capri 14.2 today. I sat in my driveway fumbling for several hours. Your post is very much appreciated here. SHNOOL thanks for the great info and TUFBUT thanks for starting this thread.
No problem... Both of you guys are east coast "neighbors." Glad I could help. There are several other posts relevant once you get the "standard" config.
Read posts related to "improvement pictures." There was an in depth discussion a few weeks ago about rigging of the traveler. Line sizes. and also the centerboard.
It helps to see the pictures too. As I discovered, there were several rigging things missing on my own boat, that I'd have never known about had I not seen the stuff here.
I am another newbie. The link below will take you to the current UCLA Capri 14.2 sailing manual pdf. It was a huge help to me. It has a chapter on rigging with excellent color photos.
Thanks to all of you for helping out - SHNOOL, jdtaillant and MajorH. good luck tree hugger. I'll let you all know how I make out rigging the Capri. thanks again
Treehugger, where in Ohio are you located and where do you sail. I am in Northfield, Ohio, 30 minutes south of Cleveland and sail on LaDue reservoir and Pymatuning reservoir. Also welcome to the group.
