Having recently checked dozens of marinas (including Oak Bay groups) for an available mooring near you, I found wait lists from 1-7 years. I would suggest that selling a boat in PNW depends as much on having a place to put it, as on the make/model/condition/price of the boat. If your mooring...

One thing missed about a re-power would be a good used Universal diesel engine. https://providence.craigslist.org/bpo/d/westerly-25-universal-marine-diesel-21/7443023710.html I have seen complete (reportedly) running M25XP engines like this starting at $1500.00. A fairly in-expensive...

Interesting non standard interior. Price reduced to 9K? Do the water marks at the base of the V berth indicate it took on water? https://ventura.craigslist.org/boa/d/ventura-erickson-sale-boat/7378642731.html

Looks like a 32-3, as it is missing the most rearward portlights. The 32-3 was still built after 1986.

Curious what the range is on a charge?

Ben offered it here for $22k. I never saw a broker listed come up so unsure what ultimately sold for.

That may be it, but the format is not familiar. Usually the broker can access a list from soldboats.com which is the broker portal to Yachtworld. Some Surveyors have access, to enable them to estimate values. Might be worth a text to your surveyor to find out. Ideally the list could include...

Did the broker provide a report of all Ericson 32 boats sold in the past 3-5 years? If not, it shouldn't be too hard to dig up a report.

I spoke to the previous broker, althogh she was a little uncertain which yacht as "she sells a lot of Ericsons". She said it was sold about a year ago and was in decent shape except the sails were about done. When I explained that her price was 27K and todays price is 11K, here first remark...

Thanks All! In fact the rates are not outrageous, when I am occupying & using the slip. But as a snowbird I would spend 3-5 months on the boat and then 7-9 months back in Polar Bear country. $3-600 per month for what amounts to a parking spot seems wasteful. I am looking into Christian's...

I have decided against a boat in CA due the the mooring costs. I was able to find east coat mooring for the Pearson for $1200 per year! If I may be so bold Christian, you could save nearly $10,000 per year if you store your boat here...

The back story? I am waiting for a reply. I have seen pictures scooped from YW and posted on free sites for half the price, the "seller" will accept a deposit via ebay or some such nonsense, and deliver it for $1 a mile. However, a few weeks ago I narrowly missed out on a 1986 Pearson 33-2...

I was looking for a place to park this ... https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/boa/d/san-diego-1984-ericson-32-sailboat/7152882283.html Seems almost too good to be real. It looks like a Ericson 32-3 but they weren't made in 1984. And the pictures are professional quality with a copyright...

Hello; If one were interested in an Ericson 32, what would the storage/mooring costs be in CA? (within 500nm of San Diego) Could one save money storing on land for part of the year? (Searching online shows about $500 per month) Thanks James

Ericson 32-200 ?
