WOW!!! - HOW time flies!!!
…Getting set to now already celebrate 50 years of ownership of “CaryOn”, our Ericson 32 purchased then brand new back in 1973!
She originally started out named the “Big Diehl” at the very start, using our last name ‘DIEHL’, as it was indeed a MAJOR purchase for me then at only age 29!
In the early 80’s, with my first child “Cary”,
I shortly thereafter made him the LEGAL half owner when he could but barely write his own name. …We then, naturally, renamed our boat the “CaryOn” with the true intent he later would hopefully pass her on down to HIS offspring some future day.
…Fast forward now to 2022, …we’ve finally been BLESSED with our very first grandchild “LUCY” who already at 10 months of age has had her first sail and is an absolute natural not to mention LOVES boating!!!
Lucy with Nani…(my wife)
…Three Generations of the actual FIVE our Ericson 32 has brought our family together for fun and adventures on the water over these past 50 years! (Me, far left, my son Cary in blue and LUCY!!)
…HEY!!…Make NO mistake, our Lucy already likes to heartily grab the wheel and gets a serious look of attention to the helm!!
AS ALWAYS - The water, sailing and family times together spent on them is THE BEST of times FOREVER…Especially on an Ericson, as once advertised, “An Ericson IS Forever”!!!
(More to follow as our Lucy now grows so quickly!!!)
