Greetings Afourians, I am a new member to this forum. I bought my boat, a 1971 Ericson 27 #74 in June 2012. She was unnamed, a little sunburnt, and in need of some love. She had not left the slip in about a year. This is not my first A4, I was partners on a '70 Cal 29 with an A4 for about 8 years, and yes we are all still great friends and sailing buddies! We did all the engine work ourselves. After a month and a half fixing, updating, outfitting,motor sailed to Catalina, Two Harbors this weekend,7-27,28,29 2012, wind on the nose intill last hour then had a good reach, a couple of other issues arose, I will save them for the forum.Anyways She's a great boat at a GREAT price, radar, gps chartplot with fish find and sounder, new water, hold, fuel tanks, inter great shape, org upoll and curtains, no hold or tears.
Happy to join the club, and getting advice maybe giving some.I day sail out of LA harbor on the weekends, let's hook up and meet on the water!
