    Blisters adding weight to hull means new propeller to regain speed???

    My 1986 E-32 received a West Epoxy System hull job in 1988 when the blister problem was first noted, although my water absorption readings were under 10%. Ericson paid half the cost and the "blister problem was solved forever." In south Florida by 1993 the blisters were back. Hundreds of little...

    Ericson 41 Florida - Norway

    Hi Gareth Harris, Your survey from 2004 is very informative. I have decided to lift her out of the water and have the hull inspected for any damage. Then I think I will keep her on dry land until she is in prime condition. If you have any recommendation on how to repair this micro cracks you...

    Florida to Cuba trips

    Someone on this list knows the answer to this, I am sure. What is the current legality of a US registered boat and US skipper making a (strictly tourist) trip from Florida to Cuba? How about a Canadian crew in the same (US registered) boat? How about a Canadian crew in a Canadian reg'd boat...

    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

    Come to sunny Florida

    Florida is a boat maintainers dream... a lot of good deals on boats needing some work will be available shortly. This is the view when I paddled out to my boat just over a week ago. She is still floating tied to the dock! Gareth Freyja E35 #241 1972

    Florida Gulf Coast - E25s

    So, are there any Ericson folks in the Tampa/StPete area? I'm still in the process of learning... My 1975 E25 is a fixed keel model w/ the tall mast (and a main apparently from a "regular" height mast). Still primarily a "day sailer" on week-ends in Boca Ciega Bay near Gulfport.
