Come on Guys... someone can help. I need the size, how tall to make them for the Ericson 34 1988. Any thing would help.
Thanks,

Innocent Bystander
I bought jackstands several years ago from Brownell in Massachusetts. For my E32 I bought three with flat wooden pads for each side and one with a V in it for the bow. I sold them off when I joined a club that requires a cradle.

The Brownell stands came in fairly standard sizes as I recall. If I were going to build them myself I'd make the six with the wooden pads about 75% of the draft and the screwposts long enough to accommodate 110% of the draft. The forward stand with the V in it I'd wait to make until the boat is out of the water - a 4 x 4 cut to size could probably do the same job.

I can't answer your question but I can second a recommendation for Brownell. Most every stand I've ever seen was made by them. Likely they would know what size you need? RT
