We sold our E33 a few years back and today when cleaning I found a file which came with the boat which includes a set of factory blueprints from the boat. I was going to toss them but then thought to ask if someone here might be interested. If so please send me an email to 2pabes@gmail.com and...

Wanted to let people know our boat sold our boat last month. Thanks to everyone for your feedback since I first posted this ad and for all of your advice since this site was put together (following the Sailnet forums!) where I learned a ton. Fair winds to you all on your wonderful Ericson boats!

Wanted to bump this one up since we are in the middle of spring buying season and she is ready to go. Please give a call if anyone should be interested. Thanks! http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1982...s#.WNj2bI7_qRs

I can't comment on that one by my E33 is definitely for sale and we have reduced the price over the last year enough that she is a very good value. She was mentioned here in other posts when I was trying to sell her on my own but have given up on that so are now trying to go through a broker...

So after a year of trying I have given up on trying to sell her on my own through Craigslist and other sites and gone with a broker. The listing can be seen below and looking at other similar Ericsons on Yachtworld she is among the best values out there today. It will be a bittersweet sale for...

I have had some interest but the boat is still for sale if anyone is interested in a clean, well appointed fresh water boat!

Our boat is still available and if it turns out we own her for another season that is fine but she is a great value for a boat in great shape.

I am surprised that I have checked back at this thread and not seen this most recent reply form December until today - sorry about that! The boat is in excellent condition and I just re-listed my ad on our local Craigslist which includes some photos which can be see here...

Sorry for being slow to respond but she is a 1982 model. Please let me know if you might like to receive more info and I will be glad to help.

I thought I had posted this up already but don't see it so wanted to make sure people know it was for sale. It has been a primarily fresh water boat which is in excellent condition with accessories to make it a pretty much turn-key boat and we are asking $34K. I have a complete listing and...

In getting our boat commissioned for the spring I found our old charger dead as well so am shopping for a new system. While replacing the charger I would like to at least consider upgrading some other things as well, such as our current battery voltage meter and possibly adding functionality of...

A previous owner of our E33 got the complete set for this purpose and I have them now. I might be interested to hear of a price for 2 of these models from the maker you are speaking with. Let me know how you might like to get this info. Thanks. Pete A. Colchester, VT

Just a thought, I broke off 2 tips from the pliers I bought for this job but they were craftsman so Sears swapped them no questions asked. The harbor freight tool might be cheap the first time, but not so much if you end up buying the same tool a number of times - never mind what you do when...

Sold! Shipped out this afternoon. Thanks! -Pete

I tried using bronze screws from Jamestown Distributors and of the 3 I tried putting in, all of them sheared off and had to be dug out of the new cabin sole. Probably the pilot hole I was using was too small, particularly into the fiberglass where these things broke, but once I switched to...
