We are now asking $40,000, firm. J&K

Hi, No, we did not, but we started with an E29 that had the traveler on the transom. We've sailed for many years, and have always thought the traveler should be in the cockpit. We've never liked the traveler on the cabin roof for two reasons. The leverage/purchase on a loaded boom from a cabin...

Hi Dave, We're asking $48,000. See below for description. Joe & Kathy

More Details: A classic, quality racer/cruiser was designed by Bruce King (now know for his superyacht designs) and built in California by Pacific Seacraft. This fresh water boat is fast and comfortable. It sleeps 6 with private aft cabin – a rare find on a boat this size. Lovingly maintained...

Hello Ericson Friends, There is always some sadness in getting another boat. We have a larger vessel in mind, so are putting our 1988 E34-200 up for sale. Lying on the hard Lake Superior, Port Superior Marina, Apostle Islands, Bayfield, WI. Tall-rig, sturdy and as fast as many 38-40's. Here is...

Drawer latches If you are talking about the black plastic push button latches in the galley drawers, I'm looking, too! I'll let you know if I find a source. Joe T. E34 Seiche Duluth, MN

Our E34 has galley drawers that lock with black, push-button latches (push in to unlock the catch). Unfortunately, the cabinet under the stove has NO latch, making for very disconcerting racket when all the pots and pans leave on port tack! Does anyone know where I can get one or more of these...

1971 E29 in very good condition (#129). Lying Barker's Island Marina, Superior, WI. Roller furling jib, asymetrical spinaker, main, 2nd jib. Tiller with autopilot, new knot meter, depth, Loran, GPS, VHF, Atomic 4 engine with new stainless exhaust riser, refurbished dodger completely...

Thanks for the leads! Thanks for the info on E34s. We are out of Barker's Island in Superior, WI, so an E34 for sale in MI or WI would be great. There is indeed a 34 in Waukegan, IL, but it is a '93, Pacific Seacraft built, for about $93K. Awsome, I'm sure, but way too much. So far, I see...

Friends! An unusual request. Does anyone have an E34 (1988 or 1989, ideally) somewhere in the Great Lakes I could view and walk through. I've only seen pictures, but have a lead on an E34 way out of state. I need to find out what a 34 feels like, if you know what I mean. Anywhere in MN, WI...

We have an ancient Homestrand/Kenyon model 206 alcohol stove in our 1971 E29 (#129) on Lake Superior. We have been very happy with it. It works great, but needs a new check valve. This valve sits at the bottom of the fuel inlet cyclinder, and requires a special wrench to get it out. The...

Thanks for advice Thanks for the lead to Moor. I'll check them out. I agree about trying to service old instruments. I spent more than $100 to fix my old Kenyon speedo, which is now not any more reliable than before. However, I'm pretty frugal (read cheap), and have no intention of...

Thanks Thanks, Sean. That was my first note on the system. I did lock it down inadvertently. Correction to my original note: my depthsounder was made by Omni, Marblehead, MA. I don't know if they are still in business. Joe.

Hello folks. This is my first post. We have a like-new 71' E29 (#129) on Lake Superior, purchased in 1999. A photo from a trip in the Apostle Island Natiional Lakeshore, a favorite haunt, is attached. We love it, and our enthusiasm convinced the inlaws to buy a 1989 E38 on the Chesapeake...
