***SALE PENDING*** Esteemed Bruce King designed, this 1983 Ericson 35-3 is a classic example of 80's yacht craftmanship, known for speed and performance. New upgrades!

Introducing the 1983 Ericson 35-3, a captivating sailboat with a storied legacy and a penchant for swift sailing. Designed by the esteemed Bruce King, this classic vessel is a testament to 1980s yacht craftsmanship, known for its impressive speed to windward. This particular model stands out with a consistently maintained and upgraded profile, making it an ideal choice for sailors seeking both performance and comfort.

Step aboard and experience the thrill of sailing with a carefully curated sail inventory, featuring two jibs, including a 120 Genoa, and an additional mainsail, providing versatility in various sailing conditions. Beyond its exceptional sailing capabilities, She boasts a sturdy construction, with a robust fiberglass hull and a mast securely fastened directly to the keel, making it well-suited for blue water travel.

Inside, the cabin exudes timeless charm with its solid teak appointments, while the thoughtful layout includes a separate shower in the head and a fully equipped galley featuring a 3-burner "Force 10" gimballed stove.

The accommodations are designed for comfort, with the V-berth offering spacious sleeping quarters and a solid teak door ensuring privacy from the main cabin. Though technically capable of sleeping six with the settee table lowered, She is better suited for two couples or a small family.

Recent upgrades and improvements enhance the overall appeal of this vessel. The mast was re-stepped and rebuilt in 2020, accompanied by all-new standing rigging, anchor upgrades, and inspection and re-glassing of the rudder. The bottom finish received a fresh coat, and new LED deck lighting was installed, contributing to the boat's robust and well-maintained condition.

Additional enhancements in subsequent years include new Plexiglass in portlights and hatches and state-of-the-art Navionics installed in 2021, ensuring She is equipped with the latest technology for seamless navigation.

A new stainless steel Navionics tower, B&G Vulcan chart plotter, Bluetooth wind package, Triton integrated display, radar dish, and Raymarine P90 wheel pilot further exemplify the commitment to modern functionality.

The sailboat received a cooling system upgrade with a Westerbeke freshwater pump, a new Wi-Fi receiver for high-speed internet access, and plumbing improvements, including a rebuilt emergency manual bilge pump and a new galley faucet. In July 2023, a thorough inspection, new bottom paint, and a three-battery system completed the package, ensuring She is not only seaworthy but ready for new horizons.

This very well cared for vessel stands as more than just a sailboat; it's an invitation to embark on new adventures with confidence and style. Head back to the waters with beautiful 1983 Ericson and make her your own. Don't miss the chance to experience this wonderful sailboat.
