1988 Ericson 32-3

location icon Fairhaven, Massachusetts
Year 1988
Length 32'6 ft
Price
$39,500

This Ericson 32 is located in Fair Haven, MA

Currently covered with a relatively new Fairclough cover, she is accessible for showing
via the boarding ladder.

The current owner has made a number of improvements since buying Esprit about 8 years ago:

New Raritan head, hoses, and macerator pump.
New fuel tank
New SS Hot water tank
New ports & hatches
New Belmar alternator and digital regulator
New water pump
New flat screen TV with Majestic antenna and stereo

The lavish teak interior gives a warm comfortable ambiance below
while providing a full 6' 2" headroom and a spacious 10' 10" beam
plenty of comfort for the cruising family.

There is a spacious U shaped galley to starboard with hot and cold pressure water,
a 10" stainless steel sink with through-hull drain. It has a gimballed 2 burner stove with oven
and safety bar for those intrepid souls that expect the ships cook to provide a hot meal
while under way.

There's a 6 cubic foot insulated ice box with insulated top and lid. A tilt-out dish caddy that
holds ten full place settings. To give you an idea of the thoughtful planning that went into the
Ericson 32, they even thought to have a trash compartment that opens to the cockpit through a
lazerette hatch. Who thinks about making garbage convenient?

There are plenty of drawers and cabinets for storage, a top loading dry storage bin and even a
built-in wine rack.

The nav station is to port and just forward of the spacious 6' 6" quarterberth on the
port side.

Forward of the nav station is the settee with seating for 4, and a convertible dinette that
provides a 6' 6" by 4' berth.

Forward is the owners stateroom secluded by a private teak panel door complete with a
private changing area and a large hanging locker.

On deck Esprit has everything you need for that casual afternoon sail on a balmy Sunday
afternoon, or for missing by inches, white knuckle competitive racing. This
boat is equipped to be sailed to your design. (Or your spouses, if you are looking to provide some
harmony on your sailing adventures).

She has the wing keel option providing a shoal draft and offering substantial lift upwind.
The wings are angled down slightly at the leading edge to produce windward lift when the
boat heels.

There is a significant sail inventory. See Additional Info Section for all the details.

Esprit has been raced competitively over the years and has collected dozens of trophy's. This is
a boat that someone can have some fun with and hone their sailing skills.

Definitely a boat to be considered.
