Hi Everyone,
I purchased a 1999 capri 14.2 a few weeks ago and finally got it on the water this past weekend. I just wanted to thank this forum for all the information that is available. I've never had a boat before and only sailed boats that were pretty much already rigged minus the main sail.
I was able to figure out all the rigging and everything and had one enjoyable sail and one not so enjoyable sail ( no capsizing, just a crying child and tangled lines ). It'll take me a while to perfect the launching/prepping process, but that'll come in time.
Attached are some pics. I hope to be able to contribute some tips to the forum
