1990 Ericson 32-200 Sold Boat in New London, CT US

Ericson Yachts has taken the successful hull from the earlier Ericson 32, modified the deck, rearranged the interior and made the Ericson 32-200 which has a much more comfortable layout.
A quick look at the accommodation plan shows three separate cabins: an aft owner's stateroom with a 6'6" by 5'3" double berth; the main saloon with dinette; and a forward cabin with 6'6" by 6'6" double berth. With the enclosed head compartment aft on the starboard side, the main saloon has more useable space while the aft cabin has a full-headroom dressing area and hanging locker. The head compartment, with pressure shower, has such thoughtful amenities as a laundry hamper and a wet locker for foul-weather gear close to the main companionway. The stand-up navigational station doubles as the top to the icebox while the galley, which serves as the entry into the aft cabin, two-burner stove with oven, double sink and extensive storage for food and utensils.
Of course, the standard Ericson 32 deck had to be modified, but you'd have to see the two boats side-by-side to detect the differences. The cockpit was raised about two inches and the pedestal helm was elevated to keep the Edson space-saver steering system out of the aft cabin. The companionway is inset, the cabin-top hatches were relocated and a larger lazarette was created to starboard with gull-wing doors to augment the aft lazarette.
Even the hull didn't escape from modifications, since the rudder was moved six inches aft to allow for a full double bunk in the aft cabin without interference from the rudder post. As a result, the Ericson 32-200 benefits from improved steering control and a longer waterline for better speed.
Construction is typical of Ericson's commitment to quality, with its Triaxial Force Grid, a one-piece system of transverse and longitudinal section beams that serve to reinforce the solid fiberglass hull skin as well as tie all the stressed areas of chainplates, mast step, keel bolts and engine bed into one solid structure.
The tall and tapered masthead rig is supported by double spreaders with inboard shrouds for close-winded sheeting angles. Lewmar winches all around, including two speeds for genoa sheets and Lewmar deck hatches (3) and opening portlights (5) provide both light and air.
Power for the Ericson 32-200 is a Universal 23-horsepower, three-cylinder diesel, with a 21-gallon aluminum fuel tank to provide good cruising range under power. Shore power is standard, as well as hot and cold pressurized water to the galley, head and shower. Water tanks hold 50 gallons and can be easily removed for cleaning or repair.
The interior trim is teak, with cane locker doors and a leatherette headliner with access zippers.
The extensive standard equipment list includes roller-bearing mainsheet traveler, double lifelines with bow and stern pulpits, swim ladder, and anchor roller with self-draining foredeck anchor locker.
