I don't see any way to get the tank out without cutting up the fiberglass liner/sole. I know the liner adds some rigidity to the boat, so not sure what cutting a huge hole in it would do. You might want to add some stringers underneath on either side of where the tank goes that you can screw...

I moved my E35ii from Vermont to New Mexico Here is how I did it. http://www.ericsonyachts.org/infoexchange/entry.php?369-What-have-I-done

My 35 has chunks of 1/4" thick aluminum plate glassed into the inside of the cabin roof. The plates are drilled and tapped and machine screws hold the handrail to the plates. Not sure if that is original though. The outside hand rail is bolted through the cabin roof with fender washers on the...

People often overlook the weight ratings of individual components in their system. Pay attention to the weight capacity of the hitch on the vehicle, trailer axles, tires (on trailer and vehicle), trailer couplers, receiver hitch ball mounts, hitch balls, etc. Just because it all fits together...

I think you are going to have to find someone parting out an 35-2. I came across a guy on ebay who was selling lead ingots made from an e35-2 keel. Long story short, last I checked he still had the mast, boom, stanchions, etc. He trashed the hull and most of the boat but had kept parts he...

I have my E35 mkII torn apart and I am looking for ways to improve on the original design and reinforce it as I put it back together. I was considering removing the floor pan and glassing-in stringers and floors and then installing a plywood sole on top. It seems like a typical stringer and...

Awesome. Thanks!

Adam, maybe you could fab this organizer into your bulkhead http://www.ericsonyachts.org/infoexchange/showthread.php?14125-Spare-parts-from-my-E-28

I think this is a cool set up for galley storage. I also like how there is a trash can access. I saw this in a listing for a 1984 E38 a while back and saved it to my "ideas" folder.

Cool. I haven't seen one like that before. A picture from the companionway looking at the chart table please. And then a couple different angles looking at the dinette area. Thanks!

Custom dinette I believe the dinette on yours is custom. I'm not sure that they came that way when it has the aft motor setup. I have the aft motor and the typical settee style with fold down table. Well...I used to...Mine is now torn apart, but I am going to rebuild it with a dinette...

Used mast contact I just sent you a private message with the guys phone number. Good luck!

Used mast and boom I randomly came across a guy on Ebay a while back that was parting out an Ericson 35 mkii. His seller name is "longbaugh1". I just messaged him and he still has the mast and boom for sale, but he does not have any listings on Ebay at the moment. I'm not sure how much he...

That "third" one is normal. It makes up the wall of the locker and back of the bookshelf thing. It also separates the locker from the lower cutout area (for your feet when lying on the settee). It might also be there for a little more rigidity since the chainplate bulkhead has the cut outs -...

Nice job, Mark!
