Yes, we've seen the sail data sheets. I think, having seen the E38's, we're comfortable with the size, and would find the CS 40 similarly fine. As for the Volvo engine, that is a concern. We know they have expensive replacement parts, and some engines are worse than others. This one is the 43...

Yes, we were on board both CT boats. The one in Groton, we believe, had lots of water damage. We told the broker this, and the price was dropped after our inspection. The Pacific Seacraft/Ericson boat in Noank is quite nice, but it's priced higher than the slightly older Ericson only 38-200's...

Yes, it will come down to condition, care and pricing. Unfortunately, no new Ericson 38-200's have hit the market this wi ter.

Last year, my partner and I were looking at E38-200's. Of course, like most of you, we liked the model a great deal. The one we wanted to put an offer on was sold a week after we left the Annapolis area. Anyway, a late 80's CS-40, made by Canadian Sailcraft and designed by Tony Castro, is...

When I mentioned cracks, I was meaning hairline crazing type cracks. This summer, we saw probably 4 or 5 E38-200's. Each had just a couple of fine cracks, typically around the deck tie down plate, the anchor locker latch, possibly a stancion base or in the cockpit wall. Again, we'd only see 2 or...

Caliboat You've got a real beauty, Don! Love the dark blue hull.:)

Having Seen the Ericson 38-200 & also the PSC Ericson 38-200 I can't comment on the virtues of the E38 versus the E38-200, other than my personal preference for the head aft. It's larger, and more conveniently placed. As for the Ericson versus the PSC Ericson, I noted at few important...

Good Points Yes, I agree, Mark. We've yet to sail either the E38 or E36RH. Judging by the pics I've seen online of the 36, it's more of a racer/cruiser than the other way around. If we want to take our boat across Lake Michigan and harbor hop for a week up the Michigan side, the 38 makes more...

E36 Chicago Ross, I sent you a PM. Let me know if you got it okay.

Is your boat still available? My partner and I may be interested in your boat, if it's still on the market. Thanks!

My partner and I have been in the market for an Ericson 38-200. We're very familiar with that design, having seen some. Does anyone out there own an Ericson 36, designed by Ron Holland? I was wondering how this boat would compare to the Bruce King design in a similar size. Any thoughts out...
