Hate to lose it, but life has changed. My crew all grew up and moved out! This is a really sweet boat and is still turning heads. Hull refinished with Imron "Cardinal Red" in 2007. Mast, spreaders & boom refinished with Imron white in 2007. Bottom ground to gelcoat and repainted with anti-fouling in 2007. New loose footed "North" Main in 2008, and repowered with a Mercury 3hp 4 stroke in 2008. 170 Genoa with roller furling. Also has older main and working jib. Trailer is original, old and ugly, but it works fine and has new tires. I think it has been used only to hold the boat for bottom jobs. Boat is currently in a private deep water dock in Venice, Florida (SW coast below Sarasota), and only a couple hundred yards from the municipal ramp. $5,900 and its ready to go. Hull #220

This is one fine boat. We sailed it out in the gulf bay recently. Especially good for a beginner or someone who likes coastal cruising in that part of Florida which is beautiful. Owned by a good skipper too.

New Home for Twisted Logic

My 23' MkII c/b found a new home in Vero Beach, Florida.
The new owner is Travis.
He is fairly new to sailing, but has already found this web site and has talked to Bob Boe (master of all things E23), so he is well on his way to enjoying his Ericson.
I'll check back occasionally to see how you are all doing.
It has been a great 7 1/2 years, and I have more respect for the Ericson product than ever before.
Happy Sailing! :egrin:
