Greetings, ( new to this ) My father-in-law owned a 30' Ericson and used it on Long Island Sound ( from the CT side ). He left sailing in roughly '78'. ( wifes passing ) If it was a 30 and not a 29 would it have been built by the original Ericson designers or later ones. He purchased the sailboat around 75/76 probably sounds like a stupid ques. I sailed a catamaran and now would like to learn bigger. ( ripe old age of 65 ) any thoughts also on a good size for the wife/me. possible a overnighter. Thank you for reading and helping a old Coastie.
