I am moving from Colorado to San Diego, Ca and I am looking for a local Capri 14.2 club in the area. I am interested in oneclass design racing, weekend sailing, and social activities. My name is Jorge and Contact information is [email protected]. I have a Catalina Capri 14.2 Mod-2
Does any one has experience with the heavily resinated Cloth Material: Dimension-Polyant 4 ounce Square Weave Ripstop cloth (also called 170 SQ HTP+)? Is this material real good for racing sails? should I expect a significant difference in performance over the traditional Dacron?

Racing sails for Capri 14.2
Jim, Thanks for the feedback. I am looking for a new sails set for my Catalina Capri 14.2
mod2 for racing. I found a company named Slo Sails in California that make racing sails for my boat at a very competitive price...
I am preparing my Capri 14.2 mod 2 (1993) for racing. I am planning to buy a new set of sails. I need advice on the following questions: how many reef points are better for racing? How many batterns? Should I buy a standard jib (100%) , or a genoa (110%, 115%, or 120%) ? I have a furling on my jib.
Thanks Spidey for your feedback. Probably I should do the up-grade from 8in tires to 10 in. have you noticed an improve on the trailer stability or handling (in the road) when changed to 12 in?
My trailer is a Snug Harbor with 8 in tires. I would like to use the trailer for long distances (more than 1,500 miles trips) and I am concidering change the 8 in tires for 12 in.
I need advise on the ups and downs regarding this up-grade.
I do not have the trailer manual and do not have...
Has anyone sailed the C14 in heavy winds conditions? I would like to know how stable and how the boat performs under heavy winds. Has anyone experimented with a spinaker?
I have a Catalina Capri 14.2 Mod 2 (1993) and would like to install a Mod 3 water-tight hatch. Is this up-grade practical and doable? Any recommendations?
How can I get a Mod 3 water-tight hatch?
I would like to create a C14 fleet in Rochester Michican. Who can provide me details and instructions on how to add the new fleet in this forum?
