    Considering a 1989 32-200 Any Advice?

    WTB fixed small ports for 32-2

    If anyone has a pair of small fixed portlights for the 1970s Ericsons sitting around in decent shape (overall size 14"x6") please let me know. I just rebuilt the sliders and they still leak. The closest size I can currently find is the Lewmar size 1 which will require me to enlarge the holes...

    Ericson 32-2 keel design

    I have recently purchased a Ericson 32-2 in November, and an item that I need cleared up is that the keel has a deep sump behind the ballast. This seems to be part of the design configuratiion. Is there access from the bilge to this area as I cannot see, because of where the cabin sole access...

    32-2 Portlight replacement

    Can anyone recommend a specific brand of portlights to replace the OEMs on 1970 era Ericsons? The two small sliders on my boat are toast--the frames are decaying, and both leak when collecting spray under sail. I'm planning to tackle this one in June when school lets out, and I'd like to get a...

    32-2 Gear Shifting Lever--where to get one?

    Today I took the boat out of the slip for the first time in a while (to pumpout the tank ) and I broke the gear lever. This is a stainless steel rod, 1/2" diameter, about a foot long with a little knob on top. There are two beveled areas, one at the bottom, and the other halfway up. Any...

    32-2 holding tank and head replacement

    Peeww! Old hoses, and old recirculating tank, and an old leaky Groco HC head all require serious attention. The current configuration is a head to holding tank with a Y valve between the two for overboard discharge, but I need a pumpout station to empty the tank. So I was thinking of going to...

    E 32-2 track size, block placement

    Hello Ericson Sailors-- I just got my asymmetrical spinnaker, and plan on flying it this weekend. I want to add a pair of cars and blocks on the tracks that run along the toe rails on both sides of the boat. Anyone know the track widths? Also, how far back should I position the sheet blocks?

    Ericson 32-2 Survey results

    Hello Ericson Sailors-- We just surveyed a boat today, and it came back great--except that the surveyor's moisture meter sensed moisture underneath the mast step. There's also a crack in the headliner between the salon and the passageway going forward. Is this a deal breaker? There's no...
