| Fay's, in Gilford NH, would also have info on Capri 14.2s. I should
never have traded mine in.

This is a late '40s design, hard chine and flat bottom, originally
designed for easy construction in wood but now obviously in fiberglass. A
very reasonable and well-executed design for shallow water sailing in that
size. The rights (and molds, probably) recently changed hands; I forget
to whom, but recall I thought it was to a quality builder. The previous
builder was also very good, with good detailing and appropriately beefy
brass/bronze hardware pretty much throughout.
A dealer in Rowley. MA a few months earlier was offering his in-stock
models for what seemed to me like a very good price. (Is the name
Perley's Marine???)

| I'm interested in a Hobie 1 (formerly Holder 14) and would appreciate
any input/comparisons/opinions/experience that any of you might have.
Thanks in advance.

| 1785.9 | it's ok.. | AKO539::KALINOWSKI | | Tue Sep 10 1991 19:01 | 8 |
| Well built, but a bit expensive for a 14 footer. You can get a full
spinnaker setup if you wish. personnally, the hobie 20 is a much bigger
boat (ie more comfortable).
Oh yes, you can still get parts from Hobie for these. They are in their
catalog.

| re .8
FWIW, we have been looking at daysailers. Since we are new to this
"hobby", I act real dumb (seems easier to do as I get older) when I
talk with boatyard owners and salesmen. While encouraging them to
ramble on about their favorites, I try to get their impressions about
other brands.
In almost every instance, they have taken shots against Hobi 1
(Holder). Their objections run from dislike of Coleman (owns Hobie) to
technical things like centerboard intrusion makes it hard to change
sides, no "deck" to sit on (gunnels are too narrow), boom is too low.
All non-Hobie dealers said they would not take a Holder-1 in as a
trade, they had no problems with Capri, Day Sailer 3, and others.
The Hobie-1 sells for ~$4K delivered on a trailer. For another $2K you
can get a Capri 16'. With wing keel and 1300 lbs, it is heavy enough to
take 4 adults and looks easily trailerable.

| re .10
Coleman sold the company two years ago to some guy from Texas who
moved to California.
My dealer sells both. He too thinks the Capri is a better boat for
the money. He sells a lot more of them.
