Hi everyone, I've been searching the Internet and YouTube for discussions on these two sailing dinghies. There's nothing out there! Is anyone able to comment on the pros and cons or their experience between the classic Laser and the Catalina Capri? Any information would be appreciated. I grew up sailing and learned initially on a Laser. Though I've sailed a lot in early life, I could still be considered a novice since I havn't been on the water consistently in decades. I hope to aquire one of these boats asap to re-learn and teach my 2 children, ages 11 & 13 in Hawaiian waters (Hanalei Bay). What I want in a boat: room for 1-2 people, 1 (or 2 sails with a laser 2 or larger Capri), just fun cruising not racing and.....mostly something that's easy enough for one person to handle a capsize or turtle alone even if the boat is roomy enough to carry 2 people. WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LASER AND CAPRI OF THE SAME SIZE/CLASS? Thanks in advance
