This 1981 Ericson 36 is a fiberglass sloop with a successful racing pedigree and a comprehensive equipment package reflecting serious preparation for competitive sailing. The boat carries a Universal 24-horsepower diesel three-cylinder engine with 1465 hours, paired with a Martec folding propeller for cruising efficiency. She displaces 11,600 pounds with 5,250 pounds of ballast, delivering a draft of 6 feet 3 inches and a waterline length of 29 feet.

The standing rigging is Navtec rod with updated running lines led aft. Deck hardware includes Harken furling gear, Navtec hydraulic backstay adjuster, a Hall rigid boom vang, and self-tailing Barient winches across three sizes. A Simpson Lawrence vertical windlass handles anchor work with a Bruce 33 anchor and 150 feet of nylon rode.
