Boat Review/Upgrades:
My E-32 is strong a boat as I hope I will ever need. It is not fast but very comfortable in rough weather. I am not crazy the way it runs downwind, or going in reverse, tough to control backing up. I enjoy the 10 opening portlites and 2 hatches, it keeps it very airy I keep it well maintained and it keeps me happy.Since owning my E32 I have done a bit of repairs, all new port lites, new hatches, new mast and rigging(1995), new lifelines, bow roller, removed old bottom paint and put on new barrier coat (5 coats), all new cushions, harken furrling, lazy jacks, vhf, gps, wind speed/wind dir., espar heating sys.
