*** Looking to sell my Capri 25 ***
shnool at yahoo is the email.

What I am attempting to do, is join our ever growing fleet of S2 7.9s. I wholeheartedly believe the Capri 25 is a BETTER SAILING BOAT than the 7.9, but I also would be lying if I said a true OD fleet wouldn't be a better way to grow our small sail club.

So here's the deal. I know the market stinks, but I know what I've spent on my boat. I am NOT going to see any of that money back. No I don't want to part out my boat (that would be criminal)...

So MAKE ME A REASONABLE OFFER, and maybe we can make it work.
1982 hull number 278
Interlux brightsides fire red topsides done in 2013
Full bottom job, including interprotect 2000e barrier and 4 coats VC17m.
new harken cams on cabintop
4 year old running rigging
5 year old standing rigging
2013 155 epsails genoa
2013 epsails loose foot mainsail
2014 135 epsails genoa
Original dacron main (usable, but could use stitching for practice)
Original 155 dacron genoa (practice shape)
Original 130 reefable dacron genoa (needs leech line) otherwise practice shape.
Original (only used 4 seasons) symmetrical spinnaker full sized 0.75oz
Spinnaker pole (original)
2013 AM/FM SD card reader stereo with bookshelf speakers, and 40watt amplifier
Rewired electrical panel in 2011 located to step
LED nav lights
2002 3.5HP johnson outboard on hydraulic motor mount
Headfoil 2 dual headfoil
Upgraded Harken midsize traveler, with 2 cars, regular and windward sheeting.
Winches just serviced.
Scuppers just repaired
ST1000+ tiller pilot (negotiable with the boat)
Dual axle trail rite trailer, with 4 adjustable supports along with addition bow support new winch, keel guides, and trex for keel support. Bearings just serviced, with bearing buddies.
Has signet analog knot
Has hawkeye depth/temp
Bulkhead compass (backlit)
Cushions deep blue, were redone in 2011.
New 8:1 outhaul
New Clam cleats on boom
New (2013) Harken mainsheet blocks
2011 Harken backstay blocks
All woodwook above and below deck has 7 coats captains spar varnish (not my choice but it's holing up well).
2011 mainsail cover, winch covers, tiller cover, and cabintop cover in blue, in very good shape.
<b>Will negotiate delivery depending on distance</b>

Boat performs well, has spent at least half of it's life on the hard.

Will sell outright, or willing to trade for S2 7.9 with trailer (and cash depending on condition).

I am not trying to get my money out of the boat, just trying to get enough to join our growing OD class.

Yes, I suppose I can do it all again with another boat. This boat could use the cockpit painted, but right now I am too busy sailing it for that... Gotta leave SOME work for the next owner.

Got title to the boat in hand, with current registration...
Also have brand new registration for the trailer in hand, good until 5/2015.

Oh and my boat is not lightly sailed, my boat is sailed hard, and if something breaks it gets fixed right away to minimize downtime.

Boat has windows that leak! otherwise it's dry. I have a cabin cover to prevent the windows from being an issue. Boat sails great with the 135%

I'll give paperwork to the new owner, to get him involved here.

Confirmed... check in hand...
Move me to the Admiralty I guess... Except I am boatless (for a bit).
