We will be putting our new to us E31 in the self service yard at Aqualand Thursday AM for hopefully not more than 30 days. Then on to Sunrise Cove Marina Dock H.
Any other Ericsons at Sunrise Cove?
Would love to hear from you.
We had the first race of our Spring series on Saturday; temp was 49, wind was gusting to about 25. Rhynie held her own with a second in fleet(9) and first in class(4). Turnout was low as we were up against the Superbowl and the loyalties of the Who Dat Nation.
Yesterday I moved my E25 to it's new slip and as it turns out there was another Ericson in the slip next to me. It made me wonder if there were more of us Georgians on this board. I'd love to hear from you! Looking forward to meeting my new neighbor this summer.

I'm still debating this one, but hope to make up my mind in the next week or so. Early = less on land maintenance, more sailing! Late means a couple of tweaks might make for better comfort. Still working on the list of priority projects...
My wife and I own a 29' Ericson that we sail in Lake Superior. We were wondering if any Ericson owners would be able and willing to take us sailing...a few hours would be fine, we just want the ocean experience as we have never sailed in an ocean, but we want to do so in the future. We would...
Capt'n's and First mates,
There are 5 Ericson's that sail our 11,000 acre man made lake Monroe reservoir here in Southern Indiana. (we can't get to all of it.) Our season runs from April to November at 2 marina's and year round at one other. Please check out our Sailing...
This will be my first year on a boat fit to handle *almost* anything.
It's gotten me wondering lately, what rough Lake Michigan conditions others have faced. I'm imagining there will be days when I head to the boat, and have enough trepidation about the waves/winds to simply spend an...

I have noticed many Ericson sailboats here in the Kemah-Seabrook area for the past 7 years. I am posting this notice in an effort to form a local Ericson club. Forming new friendships and seeing/learning about other Ericsons would be fun. We have 7 major marinas within a few miles of one...
What would the possibility be that us Lake Erie sailors could have a Lake Erie get together in 2008?:thinker:
During the Great Lakes "Hot Stove League (re winter)" yacht club bar meetings, this topic is always discussed by other owners. I believe there are enough owners and families that this...
Going for a sail today on Lake Michigan off Racine, WI. Expected high today - 86F - half my harbor is tucked away for winter and I will be enjoying a summer like sail today. In one week they shut off the water.
I've been a LONG time admirer of Ericson boats, and am seriously thinking of FINALLY getting myself one.
Probably a 27'. We'll likely use it 95% of the time for day sailing, but would also like to take several overnight trips each season.
I'll probably keep her in Waukegan IL.
One trip...
I don't even know if we have any other Ericson Sailors on Kentucky lake, but it would be nice to participate in an Ericson Rendevous or Weekend event if we had some here. We are at Pebble Isle Marina at Mile 96.6 on Kentucky lake if anyone is interested. We could set up or coordinate for all...
We are new to the Sailing community and will have our "new to us" E29 on Kentucky Lake this coming April. We would love to meet up with other folks that sail Kentucky Lake or maybe just passing through while working on completing the Great Circle! Our boat will be at Pebble Isle Marina about...
One of the great joys of owning a trailerable Ericson is that we can find warm spots and take our favorite boat with us! Let's see if I got the picture to attach and sized correctly.
Oh, and guess who forgot their sail covers!
Dear All,
Below is a follow up artical to a accident that happened on our lake here in Oklahoma. The man driving the boat that stuck and killed one and injured another was not charged with a crime even after fleeing the scene. In Oklahoma it is only a fineable offence. A low felony even...
Dear All,
I have been doing some recon on how many Ericsons are on Grand Lake of the Cherokees here in Oklahoma. With a friend on mine who owns a RH E36 we think there are 9 or 10 here on the lake. We started talking about a get together, tie up, or something here on the lake this summer...
Per Kim's request from the thread "Hello out there" I am going to post a little information about Bear Lake in Utah/Idaho. Bear Lake is a fresh water lake straddling the Utah/Idaho border. It is about 20 Miles long (North-South) & about 8 Miles wide. There is only one marina on the lake...it is...
We were recently in Minn to visit family and took a run up to the Lake City Marina to check out the boats. Lots of Ericsons- several in really nice shape. It was good to see. Any of you have boats there?
And what's with the big J boat? Do they have enough racing on Peppin to justify a boat...
