I have decided to withdraw my offer. And looks like someone else made an offer for the 1985 one. I’m not sure how often E32-3 shows up for sale but now I wait.
The red one? Yea, I saw that one earlier. It looks nice but definitely out of my budget. I really like the separate shower and all the extra space inside.
Hmm. That's a good point. I didn't think about having rig/mechanic done before James. For now, I have asked to be the same day so I can be there when they do the surveying as it's difficult for me to take multiple weekdays to be there. I will definitely ask about oil analysis.
It may sound silly but I do prefer a sailboat with a shower. I'm not sure how much I will be using it but I think it's definitely convenient to have it without any further modification. Also, I do prefer the layout of 32-3 over 33. I don't know how to describe it but something about 32-3 design...
Interesting. I didn't know there was 1984 Ericson 32-3. I was following the sailboatdata.com. I will double check the HID when I check it out in person.
Thanks!
This may be a wrong forum to ask but as for expanding my search, how does Ericson 32-3 compare to Catalina 36 in terms of sailing, cruising, and liveaboard? I do plan to do extensive sailing across Pacific and to Caribbean someday.
I see this one...
Hi Mike,
Beautiful boat! Im new to sailing and I don’t quite understand the rigging upgrades. Could you explain the pros and cons of the changes?
Also, how is 33 compared to 32-3 in terms of cruising and storage capacity? Water tank capacity? Shower?
Thanks!
Hello!
I'm a motivated buyer looking for a 1985+ Ericson 32-3 in the Socal area.
Preferably:
- Excellent - Above Average condition
- Not too much modification from stock
- Blue over green
I'm also open to learn and work on every part of the boat but would prefer a good starting place rather...
