[Capri25] Weight of a 1980 Capri 25, hull #50

[Ernest Brody]

MORC measurement data shows 22 boats measured, average 3281 lb, range from
3050 to 3500.  It's  slightly lighter than a J/24.

I would want a 6 cylinder engine if I were towing it any distance.  An 8
would be better.

Could you tell me what the weight of a typical 1980 Capri 25 is, including
the ballast?

I'm trying to sell mine and a potential buyer is concerned it might weigh
too much for his Toyota Forerunner to tow.  He thinks it weighs 2940 lbs.  I
thought these boats were closer to 2500 lbs.  Please advise.

Incidentally mine is available for $12,700 with a new Elliot/Pattison main
and a nearly new Doyle mylar 155 plus other sails in good shape such as a W.
Lee 155 genoa and a spinnaker. 

Thanks.
