Edd, So sorry it took me so long to reply. Yes that is fine. You can take whatever you want. I will cut up and dispose of the remainder. It is located at the Santa Cruz North Harbor at slip X-22. It's just laying on the dock so take what you need. You can get a map from the harbor website...

Located in Santa Cruz CA Removed from my E35-2 after tsunami damage. The track is in fine shape so posting in case someone can use it. 5' was broken off of one side. The remaining shortened length is about 30'. Other side is 35' Insert is oxidized so you might want to use new. Weffco has...

This is a fresh water tank out of my E35-2 (1972) that was located under the V-Berth, near the bow. I had a larger capacity tank custom built so I want to sell this one. Ronco is the largest manufacturer of boat and RV Tanks. These tanks go new for $195. This one's in fine shape. See diagram for...

Yes Please! We Want One Too. Alan, What a beautiful design. You have really hit it perfectly. This will be great to fly at our annual Pirate Party/RaftUp in Santa Cruz. Please let us know when a heftier batch comes in. I definitely want to purchase one. Thanks for the hard work. Dave...

Side Mount Boarding Ladder on My E35-2 I agree with Glyn. For a lower priced alternative, I bought a removable stainless steel 6 step gunwale mount ladder at West Marine at a much better price. I mounted mine on the port side. It does come with mounting brackets that you mount to the deck. You...

Buster, Being a tabernacler from way back (10yrs on my Olson 25, and 4yrs on my E-35-2), I could show you how my rig is set up. I too am located in Santa Cruz in the upper harbor (X-dock). Contact me and I'd be happy to meet and take a look at your setup and show you how its done on the...

Yes, I am interested in the same information as the rudder post on my E35-2 (1972) is rattling around. This is first I have heard of rudder packing. I did notice a grease gun fitting at the rudder head up where the tiller used to attach (now has wheel steering) but I haven't tried lubing...

Thanks to all for the quick responses. Actually the survey is already done. Re: the blistering: What I mean is there is blistering all over; about 5-10/sq.ft. dime to quarter size. I was considering doing individual repairs as opposed to a peel job which is quoted in the SF bay area at...

Does any one out there know what the wetted surface area of a E-35 is in sqare feet? I am trying to calculate cost for a localized blister repair job for a 35 I am close to purchasing. I did find a calculation on the web but it requires a lot of measurements (which I can't do at this point)...
