ERICSON 46

An excellent offshore passage-maker with superb upwind and power reaching performance. Designed by Bruce King during the 70’s she is one of the last of 22 built in 1973 and has raced in many regattas. She has a beautiful fully appointed teak crafted cruising interior with full 6’ 3” headroom throughout.

Her unique interior layout offers both a forward guest and aft owners cabins. Both with en-suite heads and privacy doors. The aft cabin head offers dual access through either the saloon or within the aft cabin. She is able to sleep up to (8) persons. The main cabin has matching settees port and starboard with folding backrests which can double as upper berths when converted. This conversion accommodates (4) guests in upper - lower bunks. All berths feature lee cloths for sleeping underway.

Centerline in the main salon is a fixed table with double folding leafs which can accommodate (6) for dinning. A large navigation station and big chart table has all the electrical switching (12DC & 110AC) and navigation and sailing instrument repeater displays and radios.
Opposite on the starboard side is the L shaped galley. Good for use underway, it features; double S/S sinks, fresh & salt water wash, a new S/S FORCE 10 propane gimbaled (3) burner stove with oven, both top loading S/S ice box and a large separate DC refrigerator box. Both with drains. Plenty of dry storage and locker space and large countertop all with fiddles. A Micro Wave oven is located here which can operate either on shore power or while underway with the large electric inverter.

The passage aft reveals the owners cabin with one single pilot berth to starboard and a double berth to port. Two large hatches offer ventilation and light. Over-all the interior design is quite unique and offers privacy, un-cramped spaces and plenty of hanging lockers, storage lockers and a light airy interior with (6) opening hatches.

The naturally aspirated 50HP BETA (4) cylinder diesel engine is easy accessed and the installation offers 360 degree total access. It is coupled to a Hurth gearbox pushing a (3) blade feathering propeller. Both low hour (686 original hours - Sept. 20, “16) and in perfect condition.

The ERICSON 46 features a flush deck; amidships companion way and large aft cockpit. The sloop/cutter rig is both powerful yet easily handled by only two persons. The large oversized winches and rig/sail plan set up offers roller furling genoa and roller furling staysail with control lines leading aft. The full batten mainsail has lazy jacks and slab reefing. All sails have been off the boat and serviced (11/15) and new sunbrela canvass on both headsails. Also a matching mainsail cover, companionway dodger and cockpit top.

NOTES
She was hauled and completely professionally painted in March of 2016. Awlgrip paint and primer was used for the topsides (matthorn white) and the cove and water line stripe (medium grey). This includes a complete bottom job where the entire (total) underwater services were ground down to the original gelcoat or fiberglass. Minor service blisters were epoxy treated and the entire bottom was epoxied and new gel coat applied along with antifouling paint. During this time all bronze thru hull fitting were greased and serviced. Also, the MARTEC 3-blade feathering prop was removed greased and serviced. New zincs.

During the cosmetic refit, the entire deck was sanded and primed and 3 coats of Awlgrip type paint was applied and new non-skid applied.

The boat has just completed a 2,500 mile cruise around the western Caribbean and is located in Cartagena Colombia. She is fully operational and all items are working and she is ready for the next passage. She is offered for sale now as the owner has new plans for a larger boat. Delivery to your port can be arranged.

ASKING: $58,500. USD
