    There’s a thread about this somewhere.

    32-3 Brochure?

    When I first joined just before I adopted Aylwin, I downloaded a 32-3 sales brochure from the resources section of the old site. I’m sure of it because I have one of the printed pages still, but can’t find the other and want to reconstruct the trifold to put on board for an upcoming “boat show”...

    Ericson Factory Original 5 Step Swim Ladder

    What does it say about my current life that I come back at least once a day hoping to see the pictures?

    New comfort item

    There’s that one day a year before you launch…I just copy what all the other kids are doing.

    New comfort item

    Adding a solar powered computer fan for ventilation

    Any new thoughts, or is there a master thread on ventilation? In addition to my erratic Marincos, I’ve been using a couple of maybe 4” rechargeable fans strategically positioned to move some air on hot days but last summer was off the hook hot (in Vermont) and I felt like I needed some heavier...

    Marine Head and Hoses, all Models [Master Thread]

    Overthinking SCAD installation. Instructions indicate metal tape should go to within 1/2” of top and bottom of tank. That would put my fill and vent under effluent. Would there be any harm in having the tape terminate just below the vent. Is this a reality I can control or would I be violating...

    Steering Wire Cable Replacement, YS and Edson

    I removed the remains (after perfecting my emergency tiller technique) and brought the bits to my rigger and he took it from there. There was yoga but it all worked out.

    Ericson in Edmonds

    Well here’s to Rose and all who sail in her. Made me feel a little more at home to see an Ericson. Great day out there. Went all the way up to the Strait and then back back through Desolation.
