What are the strengths and weaknesses of each. Early 90s models are being considered. TIA, Bill

Precision or Capri 18

The Capri 18 is 1,500lbs. with 425 lbs. ballast and 155 sq.ft. sail area. The Precision is 1,100 lbs. with 350 lbs. ballast and 145 sq. ft. sail area. The Precision has the trailering advantage with a centerboard. The Capri has the heavier feel advantage for stiff breeze sailing. Both are great daysailers. I own an '87 Capri. It's a lot of fun.
