Free 1976 27' Ericson. Solid boat! We have owned it since 2017, no time to work on it anymore. Removed the Atomic 4, too expensive for new engine and old one is beyond refurb. The exhaust, gas system still in fine working order. Has straight shaft, cockpit steering. The hull is solid, no...
Giving a rough guess I would say this Ericson Yacht Organization could represent a combined million miles sailed and several thousand years of sailing knowledge, and then there is me. Two years and several hundred miles of sailing and I feel like I have barely scratched the surface. When I...
Has anyone replaced the original traveler car and end stops on their Ericson 25+? It’s a 3/4 I beam track, who makes it and where can I buy a new one? There really isn’t anything I can see stamped with a name on except and old sticker and can’t make out what it says.
I have a brand new Sherwood raw water pump that is the revised model that replaces the G-908 that was original on many universal diesel motors. This one was purchased from a marine outfit in Seattle and has the Westerbeke 42175 part number tag on it. Also replaces Universal Diesel part 302837...
Ericsons, Ericsons - as far as the eye can see! That year the Rendezvous was held at Point Hudson Marina, Port Townsend - an old WWI era military installation.
Not sure if this is the proper place to post this but I am looking for a small dinghy.
I am taking my first trip to Catalina at the end of the month and would like to have a way in without relying on the shore boat service
If this is the wrong place to post let me know and I will take it...
I tried to open the new thread in Maintenance and Mechanical (raw water pump) and got nothing but a blank page. Tried it a couple of different ways, on a couple of different devices (PC, phone, etc).... no joy.
Anyone else seeing this?

Hey guys!
Looking for an Ericson 27ft to 32ft (1970s-1990s) sailboat in okay condition. I would love to find a boat that has a running engine, solid hull, and dry bilge. I don't mind fixing cosmetic issues. I am a young sailor looking to get my first boat. I have chartered for the past season...
Nicole (my wife) needed emergency surgery while anchored at an island that had no doctors. So we made a video about it. If you're interested it includes footage of our E38-200 bashing into some "fun" waves. It's not major surgery but be warned there is some content that may disturb some...
I saw this Ericson 27 for sale ($6,000) and thought I would pass along the link: http://www.boatinglist.com/details-FOR-SALE----1972-Ericson-27-Foot-Sailboat-
Take care,

I've recently purchased and have been restoring an Ericson 35-2 and I'm starting into one of the four big projects that this boat needs done. The first one I want to tackle is the freshwater tank.
I don't know too much about ericson's but I have been going through the manual, it looks like this...
So I recently bought an E27 that needs quite a bit of work. The worst of it is the Compression Post and aft most bulk head. The one between the head and salon that's attached to the Compression Post. The bottom of the Compression Post has become soft from sitting in water. There are a few leaks...
Ericson 35-2;Universal M3 20B-what prop?
Have searched 10 years of posts, but nothing quite addresses my question.
Considering buying E35-2. New Universal M3 20B with VERY funky installation: prop is 3 blade fixed 12 L 10 (12" diameter, 10" pitch, LEFT hand turn.) The correct prop should be...
I am a finish carpenter in Seattle and a good friend of mine purchased an Ericson 35 sans head (removed for racing). He has asked me to look into replacing the works and I am looking to you all for some direction! Seattle has no shortage of marine stores so individual parts should be easy to...
The Good :
The boat sails well and was in the water last year, I have sails for it, mast and it has a working engine. It has a cradle as well. It comes with life jackets and all lines and rigging.
The Bad:
I won't lie, it has a few problems. The rudder has a crack in it and needs to be...
Does anyone have a schematic of the linkage for the steering on this vessel?
I have a picture I can send but it won't post to this page. E mail me directly if you want to see the picture. Were all of them this way?
I'm considering a 1969 Ericson 41. I;ve been doing a lot of research on the boot and unserstand that the keel is 6' father deep for the Bahama cruising we'd like to do and thought about the Mars Metal company in Canada designing a bulb for the keel. In further investigation I found that the...
I didn't like the idiot light set-up on the Universal 5416 when I became the new owner of a 30+ so I took out the sender and fitted in a proper adapter and oil pressure transmitter. To my shock, after fitting up the transmitter, the oil pressure reads about 1 lb or at most 2 lbs, even at high...
On our way back from the Bahamas and I'd love to cut the Cape May corner by taking the canal. The bridges are exactly the same height at high water as my masthead as best I can tell: 55 feet.
Tide swings on the days I expect to reach the canal are 5 feet. If I wait for low tide, which is...

I'm reluctantly parting ways with my 1976 Ericson 27. She has much promise but I won't be able to put the appropriate amount of work in. I have several threads in this forum (old) on work I have done, including replacing steering cables and some of the thru-hull fittings.
The Atomic-4 and the...
Had to show this picture off. This is my new sliding hatch that one of my fellow sailors at my marina made and installed today. But now it just makes me realize I need to do some more varnishing on the companionway slats!
i owned an ericson 33 in the late 80's to the mid 90's. i'm currently documenting the boats that have passed through our family by having half-hull models made of each. the model maker has requested a copy of the plans for the ericson 33 so he can build the most accurate half-hull possible...

Tranquility is in excellent condition. The hull is the original white gelcoat and shows near new. She is setup for easy single handing with a Stackpack main, Simrad autopilot, and solid boom vang that make raising and lowering the main a simple task. The...
Among my winter projects (I guess it's now spring projects), I found another job when I tried to flip my cockpit 'oil' switch. It broke off. It's next to my key ignition in the lower right corner of my engine control panel for our Universal Model 12 / 1987 Ericson 26 with wheel steering. (By...
I'm trying to tighten up my deck, stopping water leaks, and thought about trying to remove/reseal the companionway htch cover. Looks like a bear, I think I counted 48 screws, whitch I'
m guessing are all machined screws. Also need to take off the traveler. I removed the 6 nuts from each side...
New E29 owner and new sailor to boot
Greetings, With Sean's advice, I'm starting this thread as an introduction of myself as someone extremely green to the sailboating experience. Never the less, and with next to no knowledge, I have purchased a 1971 Ericson 29 in what i'm told is "fair to...
:egrin:While digging through a bunch of old papers that pertain the my E35 Mk2 I found old 3 issues of the Ericson Burgee. In the National Edition #2 dated January 1992 I found two things of interest a parts list and an announcement for the Ericson 43 designed by Bruce King built by Pacific...
I looked at a couple of Ericsons last year and got a lot of helpful advice. After much looking, I've concluded that Ericsons generally have the best combination of quality/value and comfort/performance. I'd like to find a 25+, 26, 28 or maybe 30 (if priced right) with diesel. Must be in...
Greetings,
We've been in partnership of a 1988 Ericson 34 (hull #262) since 1993. When bought, the boat came with a couple of original E34 brochures stating the boat was made by Pacific Seacraft - it's the same brochure found on this website in the 'downloads' section. Our boat is the sister...

"KINDRED SPIRIT" is a twenty seven foot auxiliary sailing yacht, production built of moulded glass reinforced plastic (GRP) by Ericson Yachts Ltd. In 1976, and currently masthead sloop rigged with a transom mounted gasoline outboard engine as auxiliary. The hull has a raked bow, round...
We have a complete boat with the YS Wheel Option, with the exception of the Emergerncy Tiller. Anyone know where one can be purchased? Or does anyone have the specifications such that I could have one made?
Thanks!
I have a 1983 35' Ericson I bought in 1983 new.
My motor, universal 5424 (kubota D-1101) is the 1982 model.
Looks like the back two motor mounts attached the the bell housing directly. Can not find info on the older model that was changed the next year.
Anyone know about this??

I have purchased an Ericson 27 and I would like to know if anyone has put a hatch in the deck at the bow to store anchor rode in the little space that is in front of the vberth. I would like to have my anchor and rode accessible at the bow in case of emergencies. An anchor probably would not...
We recently purchased this boat from a previous member (see Skank Bottom). After re-doing standing rigging and dealing with a bad impeller and some other things we had some wonderful time sailing her on a windy lake in Northern New Mexico actually setting a way too big spinnaker w/out pole...
Our Ericson 27 came with two anchors, the smaller of which has an attached short length of some light chain and has a matching mount on the bow pulpit. They were just sort of chilling in random lockers in the boat. There was also a container with a longish length of twisted anchor rode with a...
I've no interest in this boat but noticed it listed on Seattle Craig's List today

Hi! I am new to the forem. My son & I sail a 1987 Erickson 28. The wheel froze leaving the slip & we discovered that the throttle-mount is bent, interfering with the wheel chain. Anyone have a brand for the pedestal or any drawings of the internal workings? Any ideas how to pop the throttle...
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...

I recently purchased a 1972 Ericson 27. It came in decent condition, with a good set of sails etc, but the seller had never actually sailed it substantially/successfully, so he wasn't really in a good position to explain the rigging. I've never sailed a boat of this size before, so I don't...
The dodger on our 1974, 29 foot Ericson is "all but destroyed". It's old and I need to replace it. Can anyone give me some guidance as to where I might find one-possibly used. My budget is tight and I want to keep my cost down.
I live in Oceanside, CA.
Thanks,

Hello all,
I'm in the midst of replacing the sole on my '81 E28+. I had a few soft spots that weren't getting any harder, plus some water seepage from an unknown source appearing at the bast of the galley, so here we go:
The floor came up in strips, chips, and fibers, much as has been...
Well after extensive research, a thorough survey and some gratifying soul searching, last night my wife and I purchased a 1984 30+, Gayle Winds out of Bayview, ID.
Other than a few minor maintenance issues, she is in wonderful shape and I llook forward to keeping her that way with the same...
My previous boat was a Catalina and I was really impressed that I can virtually go to one place and order absolutely any part I needed for that boat either on-line or on the phone through Catalina Direct. Where do you go to get stuff you need for your boat? Is there an Ericson equivalent?
I'm seriously considering a 1979 E25+ and a 1980 E30+. I've read all the reviews. Both of these boats are attractively priced under NADA low retail. But if I buy it, one day I will sell it. I'm wondering about why Ericson's don't seem to hold their price as well as other boats. The E30...
I've owned Surveyor for two years and have kept her at HandyBoat, Falmouth Maine. Very good boat is a six out of 10 in condition. Tiller steering, 2007 Honda 9.9 . Has all the usual gear associated with the year. Cushions should be recovered but it's cosmetic. Solid boat, hull near perfect. A...

Hello Ericson lovers!
Bought a 1969 Ericson 30' last year for 5k and have had only issues since. Spent 7k in repairs and a cradle. Love the look and how it sails. Atomic 4 engine is stalling even after carburator overhaul and electrical work. Had a cracked seal that led to water in the...

Does anyone have an owners manual for the O34? I've looked through the Resources here and there is an E34 manual, but the E34 and the O34 are different. I scrubbed the web and come up empty handed. I'm hoping there's an owner out there with a copy of this manual.

I was wondering if anyone has an accurate guage of the amount of fuel used in the E29 tank by taking a measure of inches down from full. The tank is sloped so if is quite difficult to guage how much is left in the tank. I know, from a friend, that someone has done this calculation for the Tartan...

Ok, after seeing 10 plus Ericsons on the Bay and in the Oakland estuary this weekend, I think that it is time that we had a rendezvous late this summer or this fall.
What would people like a anchor out, or a marina style rendezvous?
When would people like it?
Once we get some ideas...
Hi all,
Does anyone know if Morgan Steinmetz is still 'making' and selling

My wife and I are in the market for a larger boat and will be looking at some Ericson 35-3's listed on Yachtworld along the NE coast and Long Island Sound. We would like to take a test sail, but the brokers won't do so without a signed contract. So, we're wondering if there are any 35-3...

I'm considering buying one of these boats, and the owner has done a wonderful job with her. I wonder if anyone can speak to differences between the early models of E28s and the later ones. This seems to be later: hull # in the 700s, 4-foot keel, 3 cyl. engine. Grateful for any insight.
