    E31 Indepenence/cruiser cockpit question

    I am curious as to the size of the cockpit on these boats. How long are the benches? What is the overall width/length of the cockpit? Thanks for any replies.

    E31 Independence bowsprit performance

    Hi, I recently acquired an E31 Independence, hull #29, HYDRA! Very excited about the boat but there is a lot of repair, restoration, and modification ahead of me. I understand the E31 came as either a sloop, or as a cutter with a bowsprit...mine is the sloop model. I'm wondering if anyone can...

    E31 Independence for parts in Chicago

    I came across this ad while trolling Craiglist. No affiliation to the author. Ad says this was a ten year old project to build a boat from the last hull and deck made. History sounds like it could be pretty interesting. http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/boa/2016589108.html Mark

    Yet another E-31

    http://sthelenssailingclub.org/ We are just back from our club cruise down the Columbia River and home... and docked beside this lovely E-31C (see splash screen for the St Helens Sailing Club) while down river. Entrantress has an LPU-painted hull and is just awesome. While talking to the...

    Any idea how many E31s and 36Cs in the NW?

    I would still like to get an idea how many 36Cs are around, especially in Puget Sound and now intrigued with the E31s also. How big a group is that? There werent that many made to begin with. I just completed a trip up to San Juans and Gulf Islands on Brass Dragon (36C). To my surprise, I saw...

    Proud new E31 Owners!

    Hi all, We are the proud new owners of "Liberty", a beautifully restored 1981 E31 Independence (that we bought on 4th of July weekend, so how appropriate is that!). Here are some shots from our first sail from Ventura down to her new home in Channel Islands. My brother followed along in his...

    FS: 1978 E31 Independence Cutter: $25K OBO

    We are fast approaching the date when we will have 2 boats in the water simultaneously so I thought I would give listing her here one last shot before we go to a broker. She is located at Bay Point Marina in Norfolk, VA (near the Little Creek Amphibious base) and can remain in the slip until...

    FS: 1978 E31 Independence Cutter

    FS: 1978 E31 Independence Cutter: PRICE $27K OBO We have decided to lay the groundwork for our long term liveaboard and cruising plans by buying a larger boat. This means that we will have to part with (reluctantly) our Independence 31. We are still trying to determing our asking price but...

    New E31 Website

    Hello all. This really isn't a design or function post, but there isn't a "General" forum so this will have to do :) Glyn Judson and myself are putting together a web site dedicated to the Ericson Independence E31. It's non-profit, non-commercial, etc. and simply a place to store...
