    Wanted salvaged table (or drop leaf) from Ericson 28

    @LEB That looks exactly right. Let me think on this, as I haven't dealt with the table issue yet; the wife and I keep going back and forth about whether it's necessary or not, but I really would like both settees to be able to reach the table. I have relatives in Dearborn, but I never get out...

    N200 Network for Dummies?

    This is great info, thanks! I do have some nerd friends who could help me with this. Would a surface mount tank sender work for the fuel tank? I'm getting something similar for my fresh and black water tanks. I don't have the Garmin in front of me, but I think it's a GPSMAP 750, and I know it...

    N200 Network for Dummies?

    I read @goldenstate's thread on installing his N200 network and, well, yikes. I just want to install a simple network so I can use the dash panel function on my Garmin. The tach is out on my '84 28+ and I'd rather have something I can read from the helm, anyway, rather than having to bend over...

    Wanted salvaged table (or drop leaf) from Ericson 28

    Honestly haven't had time to get to it. So many other things needing my attention on the boat. This will likely be a wintertime project. Thanks for your input!

    These are great! Thank you! Now I know how it's supposed to be offset from the wall.

    Wanted salvaged table (or drop leaf) from Ericson 28

    Good to know! If you have a moment, 2 more shots would be helpful; the hinges that attach the table to the wall, and the mechanism that keeps it folded in the Up position. Looking at yours I now realize that mine was HEAVILY modified, so I may want to start from scratch. Than you so much for...

    Did you get a chance to shoot those pictures of your table?

    Wanted salvaged table (or drop leaf) from Ericson 28

    That would be most helpful, thank you. I can at least see how it was put together so maybe I can custom build something that will fit!

    Wanted salvaged table (or drop leaf) from Ericson 28

    Previous owners removed the drop leaf from the table so the port settee can't access the table properly. They did a good job redoing the table so I can't tell how the drop leaf was mounted. I'd love to just replace the whole table with a stock salvaged table, but would also be interested in just...

    Introduction

    Hello! I've just joined this group, prompted by my recent purchase of an '84 28+. It's my first sailboat and I am totally in love with it. She needs some cosmetic work but is structurally and mechanically sound, with a lot of new stuff like tanks and wiring. Ill be hitting you all up for advice...
