==================================================
The boats that gave name to the expression RACER / CRUISER were exemplified by the Ericson line of the 70?s. This pretty 29-footer will sleep six in comfort without having to convert a table or re-make the whole interior. This is also the same high performance design that won the Canadian Half ton championship in 1975. This was no mean feat in a very competitive class. A very pretty all teak interior; with midship hatch and 6? 2? head room combine with a very workable galley and stand up head to provide a nice comfortable cruiser. The clean underbody and cut away keel provide excellent speed and her 45% ballast to weight ratio results in excellent stability.
The Ericson 29 was one of the 1st boats to offer two double bunks in an under 30-foot aft cockpit design. On deck, the split cockpit with aft wheel steering augments her wide side decks and clean lines. The split allows the helmsman and mainsheet to exist separate from the rest of the crew. A nice touch whether cruising or racing which this design can still do convincingly.
If you have wanted to get into sailing or just move up to a more comfortable boat without spending an arm and a leg, this is your chance. She is ready to go and will provide you and your family with the getaways that you have been dreaming about.
