Thank you. We had looked at a disappointing 34 near Bristol RI a few weeks ago. Some good friends from the Caribbean who line in Newburyport connected us with Kathy.

Looking to purchase an Ericson 34 or 38, years 1986 or newer in New England. We owned a 34 for 22 years, then sold it for a Cambria 44 to spend 8 years in the Caribbean. Now back in Maine, am selling that boat and looking to return to our roots.

The wind vane for the wired Garmin wind instrument installed in 2013 at the top of my mast has disappeared twice apparently due to be a young osprey in the neighborhood that likes to attempt to perch on it. I have seen it perched on the top of other nearby masts. I have had no problems in prior...

One further issue is that the Taco web site suggests that it will no longer be making the A11-0511 rub rail since it labels that product "CLEARANCE – ALL SALES FINAL." Larry Clough 1986 E-32 Cape ELizabeth, Maine

I just found your post which is a big help in analyzing a possible purchase of a 1987 Ericson 38 in Salem, MA. I would guess that this is a 40+ hour project for both sides of the hull, one that needs to be done on dry land in warm weather so that the epoxy stays viscous? Where did you...

Looking for an E38-200 in New England or mid Atlantic in good shape. No project boats please. Will be selling my 1986 E32 in good shape, extensively renovated, new winches, main sail, electronics, autopilot, solar etc. Larry Clough E32 Bella Luna Cape Elizabeth, ME Lrclough@gmail.com

I have used Duramax Ultra-X Marine Compression Packing sold by Hamilton Marine for the past 2 season with no issues. The Duramax web site explains things further and the product seems to be engineered for use on large commercial boats in continuous use. Zero temperature rise on the stuffing...

Since the needle voltmeter provided on the electrical panel is basically worthless, I replaced it with a cheap digital meter from Amazon as pictured. I drilled a 1 1/8" hole in a pair of 2 1/2" square thin fiberglass sheets, with the outside one painted black, inserted the meter so as to...
