Nothing can compete with Google and its search-engine competitors, but Sean's upgrade of the Ericson forum is a boon to finding stuff here.
Forum search can be narrowed down more successfully than in the past.
For the first time, Blogs can be searched by Ericson model. Blogs are owner diaries and not intended for Q & A or ongoing discussion--that's what forums are for. However, an owner of, say, an E32-200, can at a glance call up all blog references to, say, "water heater" -- just for his model. That's now possible because the blogs are sorted by model ("prefix"). Use tab Search Blogs/Prefix.
"Blogs by Author" presents the blog lists as they formerly appeared.
Owner Photo Albums, accessed under the Media tab, are also now searchable by yacht model. Media/Owners Albums/Prefix List.
Migration of data and photos continues and may not yet be complete for every entry.
Hats off to Sean Engel, proprietor.
