1988 Ericson 34-235ft

Panacea is a true yacht that includes full cruising amenities, excellent interior cabinetry, with a superb design, and one of the best built boats on the water. Bruce King designs are legendary, and the Ericson 34-2 is one of his most highly acclaimed. She is fast, beautiful, and rugged. 

The Ericson finds a comfortable middle ground between racer and cruiser, accommodating the needs for a cruising family or single-handed sailor. This is a beautifully, responsive boat that is both fun to sail and sensibly designed for coastal cruising, if not for more longer- term liveaboard adventures.

The Ericson 34-2 has the stability and construction standards suitable for offshore cruising and ocean crossings with a healthy sail-area displacement and ballast ratios, a moderate fin keel, and a semi-balanced shallow spade rudder with a fiber glassed hull-to deck joint, keel stepped mast, and lead ballast keel it is built to take the knocks of cruising.
