SASSY
Member II
Hello to all, I have been a member of this web site since purchasing my E-34 last April. Since then I have used this web site to answere many question about a wide variety of topics. The membership has made the job of restoring my E-34 much easier than going it alone.
I have entered my E-34 SASSY II in the Del sol al sol Regatta from St Petersburgh Florida to Isla Muahra Mexico begining Friday April 24th. For anyone interested you can follow our progress at www.iboattrack.com. I hope to represent Ericson owners well and hope to bring home the winning jug for all those who take time out of there bussy days to post items on this web site to assist us all.
