I'm considering the purchase of a 1991 mod 2 Capri. It's for sale at a dealer and they are asking $2300. The painted trailer needs some work and overall it isn't in A+ conditions so I was thinking of offering $1750-$1800. The biggest reservations I have regarding the Capri are:
1. 22.5' mast height. I know the mast sits at an angle when the boat is on the trailer, does this allow it to fit in a standard 20x20 garage?
2. I do have some concerns about stability. I will primarily be sailing on small inland MN lakes and there seems to be plenty of negative press about the Capri's stability. If the boat is relatively unstable there is no way my wife will want to come along, which is kind of the whole point. Can you put my fears to rest?
Thanks all!
