I can help with launch and/or orientation and delivery in the Lakes Erie, Huron and Michigan.I bought the family cottage and have the next three summers booked.I would happily go to the boat or my sail locker and text pictures of anything you want to see.See what an Ericson 32 can do! Search 'Christian Williams, Alone Together'The engine runs fine for hours and hours. 
The choke cable needs adjusting. On occasion last year I had to manually adjust the choke. 
The carburetor is due for a rebuild as there is a dead spot on the throttle.
The alternator has a bad diode. But charging in the slip suffices.
Reverse is tight and works and forward is very good.
There is a slip at Markley Marina.
