    Securing hatchboards

    Offshore racing rules here (SF Bay) require the hatchboard(s) to be in and secured to a level such that a wave filling the cockpit cannot empty down the companionway entrance... Do any of you do this? How? I just tie mine down, but the more I think about it the more I wonder if some easier way...

    Wanted: E27 Companion Way Hatch

    It's a long shot.. but if anyone has one available, please let me know! I would be interested in the fore hatch as well. I'm in Everett, WA, but willing to pay for shipping.

    E23-2 Big Plans - Little Boat

    Hi all, I recently got my hands on a 1976 Ericson 23. I’m really excited to get some projects going on the thing. I have some general questions before I get started and would really appreciate some feedback. To begin, what kind of wood is in the interior? I’m not totally sure if it’s teak or...

    Folding, removable companionway door

    It started out as a 1-piece hatch board for ease of use when on a mooring or in a slip, fewer pieces to struggle with, faster lock-up and unlocking. After using it for that and being pretty happy with it we decided it would actually be better if it was a folding door, that could be...

    Need New Companionway Hatch for Ericson 27

    My son and his wife are new owners of a 1977 Ericson 27. They are in need of a new companionway hatch. Would all or some other models share the same companionway sliding hatch? Do companionway hatches... of that vintage have identical dimensions? Could we use a hatch from other manufactures...

    Fixing/Strengthening Companionway Ladder

    I was climbing the ladder yesterday, and the screws pulled out, sending me crashing to the floor. (photo 1) Here's what I'm thinking to fix it, and I wanted 2nd opinions before I begin on the project. 1) Fill the screw holes and the gaps with gorilla glue, and clamp the entire ladder...

    Securing Companionway ladder

    The companionway ladder in my E 30+ is not very secure, it has a habit of leaving its place at the most inopportune time (like when I am stepping up into the cockpit!) and if your not quick causing serious bruises. Hopefully none of you have experienced this, but if you have how have you secured...

    E25 Companionway Hatch

    Yesterday I tacked a question onto an old thread titled, "Making a Sliding Hatch." Today I am starting a new thread, because it seems I may be facing a problem that might be specific to the E25. This morning I removed several of the pieces of teak from my hatch to see what might be between the...

    Companionway door hinge mounting

    My winter project has been building companionway doors. I'm to the point of mounting the hinges for them and was looking for insight/advice. The attached picture was taken during the first pass fitting and since then I have mounted the teak weather strip pieces in front and back that cover the...

    Wanted - Companionway hatch (or plans to build) for an E-27

    Hello all, I was extremely excited when I logged on today and saw the thread listing a used E-27 companionway hatch on craigslist. Could I be that lucky? Unfortunately, I am a little late and the hatch has been sold. While I doubt that another will become available soon, if anyone knows...
