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.
