HelloWe're currently looking at a 1991 Pacific Seacraft Ericson 34. We have seen the boat, and organized a survey for early in April. Is there anything we should specifically be looking for? How prone are these boats to rot? I ask this because our current boat, an S 2, had a bunch of Rot that we are still fixing. There is no haul out where the boat is, in AlaskaIs this important to do as part of a survey? Also, the boat has no dodger, and I want one. When I called around to canvas companies, they old me I had to bring the boat in. Is there any way to get around this? There is a good canvas company in Vancouver and one in Seattle, and it would surprise me if they hadn't made dodgers for this model of boatThe other thing I'd be interested in knowing is what the difference is (if any) between the Pacific Seacraft version and the normal Ericson 34Thanks very much. I was really pleased to see such an active Ericson forum
