I highly recommend Elliott Pattison Sails for our Capris.

They are located in Newport CA.

Thanks, Rick! I am looking for a Capri 25 main to use on my Catalina 25 tall rig, so I can install a bimini under it.

The leech on a Capri mainsail is 28 and a half feet, it's 29 feet on your tall rig. Is that 6 inches enough?

Strange, I thought a Capri 25 luff was 26.5'! That seems to be the measurement in the class rules??

Actually, Rick, I am more interested in shortening the LUFF for vertical clearance for the bimini. The leech is close enough not to matter.

I have a used Dacron Main sail that I would think about selling. I have no idea what it measures, but if you are interested I can measure it for ya... It was just cleaned and a window was put in it. Its in really good shape for a used sail. Email me if you are interested.

I have a really nice spinnaker too, But it will have to go for allot more than the others sold for. These are my backup sails and I really don't want to sell them, but if someone needs them and could put them to use I feel it would be a good thing getting more boats on the water.

HOw much are you asking for the main.........................? Call me if Will soes not want it. MY main is on its last legs functionally, and I will not even descibe its cosmetic appearence. Lets say I do alot of early and late evening sailing, and do not raise it until well into Lake MI.
