The S/V Winderness is a well maintained 1978 Ericson located in Haines, Alaska. The Yanmar 3-cyl 27.3 horse diesel (3GM30(F) (V) was installed in 2000and is in like-new condition with less than 500 hrs of operation. The gib is roller-furled and is the only fore- sail needed since it is foam...
Despite the 33oF and wind I have this morning removed the prop shaft from our boat. The boat is powered by an A4 and has a 3/4" shaft -both factory installed as far as I know. I sanded the vast majority of antifouling off the strut end/sleeve but can see no signs of any dimples, recesses, or...
If you are familiar with the 35-II's handling I really could use some of the groups collective wisdom. Thanks.
I have spent the last 5 years slowly rehabbing our 1976 35-II (electrical, plumbing, deck re-core, standing & running rigging are finally done) and it is now time to replace the...
Boat has a large cockpit with back and front bimini's. Interior is varnished mahogany. Double v-berth forward and two main salon berth setees and a single rear quarter berth. L-shaped galley adjacent to companionway with counter, storage, two burner electric cook top, insulated ice chest. Main...
Anyone know the gross tonnage of a 35-II. Just looking for an approximation. I just recently learned i has nothing to do with weight. hmmmm.
any guesses would be welcome.

Anyone know the dimensions of a 150 genoa for an E35-II.
The luff is easy enough...mine is 41' 6" for my furler, but I
am not sure what I should be looking for in the leach length
or the foot. I want a deck sweeper (or as close to it as I can)
for the light NW summer winds and for a little...
Can anyone out there save me the trouble of going to the boat for a measurement?
I'm going to replace the topping lift and wondering what the measurement would be. I'll take an educated guess from anyone and build in a few feet for error. ;)
How long (and how thick) a line would I need for...
I've just built two new hatches for out '72, 35-II - pretty much the same design as original. Wooden box with new glass. Has anyone improved the hatch closure system. I'm sure there must be a better option than the original and I don't want to start drilling holes in the acrylic for the...
I thought about hijacking my thread about livability, since it's all about the same boat, but figured a thread in Maintenance was more appropriate. I'm looking at a 77 E35-II that I started off looking at because it was local, even though I didn't want that particular boat. It's insanely...
Hi Folks...
My 35-2 has no signs of a hot water heater ever being installed. Can anyone tell me where the factory would have put it? Or better yet, where the best place is to put one.
thanks a bunch

Anyone seen dinghy davits put on a 35-II? I'd love to be able to bring my dinghy along without having to haul it on deck or listen to it slap the water in tow the entire time, but I feel like it'd just look funny. This boat has such nice lines that I hate to detract from style with a big ol...
"ROYONO" A beautiful Ericson 35 is For Sale. Yanmar diesel, Auto Pilot, new canvas, gorgeous interior. I'll post pics soon.

Hey All...
I need a pedestal guard for my E35II 1979. Problem is, all I can find are guards with 9.5inch widths. Due to the design of the 35II, the pedestal sits just aft of the mainsheet traveler on the cockpit "separation" partition. I feel that this prevents the pedestal guard from being...
My husband Marty and I were purchased our 1977 Ericson 35-II, Mino'aka, in 2001.
She's been a joy, but as we took longer and longer journeys, Marty began to get back pain from stooping while below.
SO...we bought a new-to-us boat (after researching like MAD and even attending Annapolis...
I posted this for those who are puzzling over how to get the engine out of the bilge of 35 Mark II. I slung a 3" aluminum whisker pole from the boom inside of the cabin, with the slings going through the companionway and the main hatch. I then attached a come-along to the whisker pole and was...
the lp tank is stored in the starboard locker. the locker isn't vented. has anybody relocated there lp tank ?? my thoughts were in the transom locker and i can then vent it thru the transom...
