I really like the look of that capri 13 -^.

I've only sailed Sunfish and Lazers a few times and they were fun. Very simple and IMO a nice learning tool to the basics of sailing. These boats almost demand wetsuits though. Anthing past 60% of the sailers ability and you're going in sometime. Educate yourself on proper set ups and have some fun. I'd suggest looking over the boat's gellcoat to make sure there are no blisters and poorly patched damage. May of these have lived a hard life with lots of neglect. Depending on the previous owner, plan on at least replacing all of the lines and maybe some hardware.

Most of my experience has beein in Rhodes 19's and my own Seidleman 25 (I miss that one). Despite the number of regattas I've been in I'm just not that competitive. I've already told my wife I want something like a lazer to teach my boys to sail.
