Mini's are finally off

[BillL Capri 22]

Some of you guys are wishing for that Catalina 275, I'm daydreaming about something the same size as our Capri 22, but with a bit more "capability" (not that the Cp22 doesn't do everything I really need her to do).

The funny thing is that I can get a brand new factory Mini made in the US with trailer and sails for $62k. That's less than the 285 and a hell of a lot faster and fun. So why do I want that Catalina again?
