Blue Streak
E25
Does anybody actually trailer an Ericson 25?
I don’t mean using the trailer to take it out of the water at the end of the season. I mean putting it on the trailer and going somewhere!
I bought my boat, an Ericson 25 center board, because it was the only way to get past a 3 to 5 year wait for a slip. I had intended to buy something a little larger and with a fin keel.
But, trying to turn lemons into lemonade, I am thinking about trailering the boat to warmer climes during the winter, rather than storing it on the hard at 9000 feet.
My thought is to trailer her to Southern California in late October and bring her back in May, when the snow melts up here.
An E25 may not be suitable accommodation for more than an overnight or two for a 60 something couple, but it appeals to me as seasonal pilgrimage. And that’s why god invented hotels and condos.
Why not store it someplace where I might actually be able to enjoy it in the winter time?
Anyone do such a thing?
