Broker's Comments

Uffa Fox certainly knew a thing or two about designing boats that would actually sail and Copland knew how to build them. But, I find it a little stretch of the imagination to describe the Foxcub 18 as 'Super de Luxe' or even as a four berth!
However, I have spent a weekend or two with a wife and three small kids on a Caprice 19 - but that was a long time ago! I would consider her to be a fun coastal cruiser for two, and if you really need to, two small children could accompany you. She'd be an excellent choice for the dinghy sailor who is looking for a little more comfort and the chance to cruise further afield whilst not wishing to rough it under a soggy bit of cloth.
A recent motor (4hp is more than adequate for this 'dinghy with a lid') and a Walker Bay tender with oars complete the package.
