[FONT=Calibri, sans-serif][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Fellow Vikings!
Yes, this exceptionally well equipped, and rare, Ron Holland designed Ericson 33RH is definitely for sale. Built in 1984, she's spent the last 23 years in the fresh water of the Columbia river in Portland, Oregon. Just came out of the yard early this year with a fresh bottom and routine out-of-the-water maintenance.
This fractionally rigged and rare Ericson is notable as being a true dual purpose boat that is at home on a race course as it is for extended cruising with the family. Very well equipped for ease of sail handling when racing, or sailing short handed, and for comfortable cruising. This fine boat will be going into brokerage late this month - a private sale would save brokerage fees and be a better deal for both the buyer and seller. Asking $25,000.
