    Is a <$18,000 Ericson 38 a Financial Trap?

    Hi Forum, My name is Mike, and I’m new to the Ericson world. I have my eye on a local 1981 E38 that’s being offered for less than $18,000. I’m unsure of the structural integrity at this time, but am going to take a look at the vessel next week. I was was hoping to get your take on whether or...

    Keel Damage and Repair Opinions sought

    I completed a pre-purchase survey of a 1981 Ericson 36 RH yesterday and all went as expected except for the following: The keel is canted slightly to starboard, ~ 1 degree, very subtle but visible if you have a good eye. The lower aft corner of the foil appears to have a very slight twist to...

    Wood damage stain removal ?

    I think the damage is from standing water ? Right now we are just sealing it in but I'd like to know how we might remove the stains before redoing the cabin sole finish next time ? Bleach ? Something else ? -Sven

    Keel Damage E-32

    Just got the boat back from a very long truck ride and I found damage to the keel. I noticed it as a 2 foot long split on the very underside of the aft part of the keel, but once the yard had set it down on the stand, I guess the pressure on the keel split it open, along a significant portion...

    toe rail damage

    Hi everybody; this is one of those "just when the forecast said 30 knots" stories. Ernesto measured 60 at the marina. I fared fairly well; didn't sink like some did. I'd like to know the extent of damage from the cracks (open fissures) in the toe rail. I doesn't appear to be serious at 1st...

    Rudder Damage

    When I was being towed to a local yard, there was a lot of play in the tiller. After haulout, I could move the rudder slightly without the shaft turning. Anybody any idea how the rudder was built, and what needs to be done? Gareth Freyja E35 #241 1972

    rudder and keel damage

    my 1988 38-200, hull # 276, was recently involved in a 3knot grounding. The bottom trailing edge of the rudder in a triangle measuring 2"x5" was damaged when the boat rocked back on the rudder. The boat is equipped with a shoaldraft keel, a winged keel, the left wing is bent upwards on the...
