Other Ericson boats for sale in Florida, United States
The 1980 Ericson 30+ Sloop is a popular Racer/Cruiser that provides lively and seaworthy performance with its double-spreader fractional rig, shoal draft fin keel, and spade rudder, yet has a quality teak interior and layout that makes it perfect for overnight or weekend cruising. The 16hp Universal Diesel Engine is clean and reliable and the Harken Roller Furling system with a 130% Genoa were installed in 2008 and have had very little use. The Mainsail has a Lazy Jack system and all halyards are led back to the cockpit, making it easy to sail short-handed.
Electronics include a Garmin 440S GPSMap with Depth, a Magellan FX324 Color GPS, an ICOM VHF Radio with DSC, and a hand-held ICOM Floating VHF and a 3.5" Ritchie Compass at the helm; all you will need for coastal navigation.
Incommunicado is a solid boat that is ready for its new owner to enjoy and with a few minor & inexpensive cosmetic improvements you can easily increase her value and overall appearance. Call today if you want more information and to schedule a personal inspection.
UPDATE: Seller wants this boat sold this week, so this further price reduction makes it an excellent value for a solid boat with a clean-running diesel engine and clean, dry interior. Don't be shy with offers! Potential value is $25,000 if you do some basic inexpensive upgrades!!
