I believe almost all, if not all, E35-2s had deck stepped masts as original equipment. I knew of one that had a keel-stepped mast, and that kept the boat from a dismasting. The starboard shrouds pulled out, and the owner reacted quickly enough so that he saved the mast.
I know of another one that is a FSBO, and the owner claims it is keel-stepped. So . . . Was having a keel stepped mast an option? Any specific years?
I'm considering getting an E35-2. It can get pretty gnarly here on SF Bay, and I'd prefer a keel stepped mast if at all possible.
Anybody have any thoughts or info?
