    Hi bertboyer. The boat is pretty solid and an original owner. Located at Portland Yacht Club. Is has some leakage coming from the box pulpit railing dripping down onto the vinyl liner. Probably easy fix - just rebed and remove liner etc and re-install. It does not have the latest GPS stuff...

    Hi everyone. The boat is still for sale. Change of plans for me this year. Might still be looking next year, you never know.

    Another PSS cautionary tale

    Just watched your video Christian. That ball value was scary and not supposed to happen. You would have had to improvise, adapt and overcome and that's why your toolboxes continue to grow as does all ours lol. Glad you got things sorted and did not sink at the marina.

    Looking at Ericson 32-2 and would like advice on common issues

    Thanks. Check FB Marketplace and I think there are two E27's here in Portland and or Hood River. Those are nice little boats and might be just the thing. I know Boise well, as I serviced semi-conductor systems at Micron and Zilog for years.

    Looking at Ericson 32-2 and would like advice on common issues

    Sorry to hear this. What the others have said and the old saying - "There will always be another boat" I know the 34-2 that I am looking at is way overpriced. So, I am keeping my options open.

    Looking at Ericson 32-2 and would like advice on common issues

    Congrats on your boat. Sounds like she sails well but will need some TLC. That will be a good bonding experience for you. Where will you keep her? Last Saturday was beautiful on the Columbia, as I was checking out some boats myself. Spring is almost here and the PNW has the best summers in...

    Hi Ray Sounds like butyl tape is the way to go for re-bedding everything. I was going to use silicone but the tape sounds easier to use and less messy. BTW, where in Alameda do you keep your boat? Our Santana 22 was on Santana Row at the Alameda Marina. What happy days sailing the estuary...

    Thanks Jeff There is always the little clicker ignitor tabletop/camping butane stoves. My wife loves these things and they do come in handy.

    The brokerage add says she has a propane stove but I found this CNG cylinder in the starboard lazarette. Can this be removed and filled or do I need and newer cylinder? Really don’t want to use propane if possible. They have a propane bottle inside the aft lazarette but it’s probably for a...

    Hi Marlin So you have an early 34-2. Do we know how many 34-2's were built? I know that Pacific Seacraft took over the molds in 1990.

    I think that's the spinnaker pole downhaul bock and possible source of the forepeak leak as found Saturday. She has a massive pole mounted vertically on the mast. As part of my offer, I am going to ask for a sea trial too. Just to make sure everything is working correctly, using all sails...

    Can’t wait to check the pulpit mounts for leaks. This is probably where than scary water is coming from.

    Not many outside shots so here we go. She has a nice cockpit and even an external shower starboard side lazarette. At least that’s what I think that faucet body is for.
