Thanks, although I haven't done the deck yet (soft core in one area) I have been sealing the leaks up as I find them (mostly just re-bedding the stanchions with butyl rubber and that one crack I found and reglassed.)

Thanks, I add in new photos every few days as I work on it, took a look though yours and left a few comments.

That's mildly depressing, i've been potting (removing some of the core inside of the various penetration areas and filling the entire hole with resin then redrilling the hole though the resin) some of the stanchions as the weather allows me. The crack which I ground out took about a week just to...

Took some pictures of some of the interior systems, AC/septic/atomic4 In case you want to add in an AC unit for yourself so you can see how it was done in mine.

I've recently purchased and have been restoring an Ericson 35-2 and I'm starting into one of the four big projects that this boat needs done. The first one I want to tackle is the freshwater tank. I don't know too much about ericson's but I have been going through the manual, it looks like this...
