    E25 Chain Plate/Bulkhead Connection Structural

    I am looking at purchasing a '74 E25. The owner has indicated that the bulkhead around the chain plates has received water penetration. He has re-enforced the bulkhead. Two questions: Is this chain plate/bulkhead connection structural? If so, does this fix look solid?

    Searching for a swing keel for E-25

    :esad: We lost the Keel while sailing and the keel is lost. We are looking for the specs to build a replacement keel. I reviewed the specs and documents page and it shows the general specs, but the drawings of the keel are not dimensioned. The information posted describes how the keel was built...

    Wanted; Used E-25 CB Trailer

    Does anyone have or know of a possible trailer that would handle my boat? It does'nt need to be in the best shape as long as it's solid enough to travel back to Wisconsin to be overhauled. I really am only willing to travel in the upper mid-west Ohio-ND and down to Tennessee. Thanks Rob

    I'd like to see a E25+ in person in Florida.

    I think I want to purchase an Ericson 25+, but I have never seen, nor sailed one. If anyone in south florida has a boat they would let me oogle over and maybe even take me for a quick sail, I would forever be in there debt. Alan Russell West Wight Potter 19

    E25 Portlights

    The rubber gasket material on the portlights have shrunk/contracted as shown. Is this just a matter of age (they still feel resilient to the touch)? Although they aren't obviously leaking, I may as well replace the gaskets while I'm fixing the other things, if someone can point me to a...

    failed chainplates on e-25

    I made a surprising discovery on my e-25 while working on replacing the forward bulkhead just below the mast step. Once the bulkhead was removed, I discovered a stress crack on my starboard side chainplate that had progressed almost completely through the entire strap. I'd guess that less than...

    e25 masthead

    Attached is a picture of my e25 masthead and the sheaves and spacers contained within. The boat still has the original wire/rope halyards. A previous owner must have added the extra (white) spacer shown -- causing a very tight fit. The sheaves were obviously not rotating as can be seen by the...

    E-25 Parting out on Sailnet Forum

    Hey Guys and Gals- There is a guy over on sailnet's forum that posted parts for a E-25. Just go to the Ericson section and you will see it. B'Gosh I feel like the town cryer. Rob Hessenius

    Spec's for E25 CB keel?

    Sadly, I lost the swing keel on my 1976 E25 as a result of lending the vessel to a friend who failed to raise the keel at the end of his voyage. Long story short, the low tides and resultant rocking action did the trick. When I returned from up north, and took her for a sail, I discovered the...

    E-25 Main Halyard

    I have a 1976 E-25. Necessity is my first boat and I love her. I've only owned her for a couple of months, so this is my first of what probably will be a lot of questions. The main halyard is on the right side of the mast, no winch. There is a winch on the left side of the mast, which has...

    correcting unbalanced helm on an E-25

    I am a new owner of a 1972 25 cb model. I love the boat, but am just really getting to know it. I previously sailed extensively on my sisters E-23, which is why when this boat came up for sale, i jumped on it. I'm running a 100, 130, and 150 Genoa on various winds. On all the sails, I notice...

    E25 questions

    I bought a 76 E25 this year and have a few questions. Does any one have pictures or sketches of the starboard settee berth sliding out to a double? I need to add this feature.

    bending on mainsail, E-25

    OK, 2nd season with my E-25, but first time bending on the mainsail- This should be pretty straightforward, right? run her down the boom track, secure to outhaul, run up track on the main... and sail must also be attached (by 'hook or by crook') where boom meets mast?? tips?? thnx!

    Cabrillo Marina is auctioning off a 1969 Ericson 25 next week - I think on Tuesday the 16th. Don't have any idea as to it's condition - lien sale boats are usually in poor shape, but can be a good way to get into boating if you are handy and know what you're getting into. Their number is...

    Parted wire on E25 while raising mast - and other difficulties.

    My E25 did not come with the trailer mast raising option so I had to get these items built recently. There are some tricks to getting it right and when things go wrong, expensive things break. Maybe this is a revisit and a rehash of the obvious, but here it is, nonetheless. Interestingly...

    1973 E-25 Traveler Blocks?
