    Considering buying a 36c, please help.

    I am looking at purchasing an Ericson 36c. I am mostly interested in long distance cruising and Bluewater passages. I need a boat that can cruise the Caribbean, and possibly cross oceans, safely. I'm not looking for anything that is super fast, nor do I have much desire to race. It looks like a...

    Liveaboard: 35's vs. 38's

    I'm considering buying an Ericson 35 or 38 as a liveaboard, and I wondered if anyone who's owned or been in both boats for a few overnighters could help me. I know that bigger is always better if you're going to spend much of your time at the dock, but it seems to me that the 35 (Mark III--the...

    E35 as liveaboard

    We're not Ericson owners.....yet. Seriously considering a '72 35 for full live aboard. Questions: 1. Is any one living on a 35? If so what modifications/additions have you found most desireable. 2. I can't seem to find any specs other than the basics. How about rig measurements? Tankage...
