Hello there.
New to the forum and hope I can get some feedback to my questions. Basically we are looking at downsizing to a 22 to 23 foot sailboat and deducted that the Ericson 23 Mark II with fixed keel is our first choice. I would appreciate any comments on the following:
How well does this boat point into the wind?
Is the deck core made of end grain balsa or something else?
Is the keel lead?
Keel to hull issues?
Common defects or suggested upgrades?
Performance of the tall mast version?
Cheers
Jocelyn
