Ericson 38

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WHEN VIEWED ON A MOBILE DEVICE THE LISTING SHOWN ON YACHTWORLD IS VERY ABBREVIATED. VISIT OUR WEBSITE TO SEE THE FULL LISTING SPECIFICATIONS. 

Bon Vivant is a classic example of Bruce King’s Ericson 38 design.  This boat has been sailed, regularly maintained, and loved by her original owners since they took delivery of her.  The deck layout makes for easy sailing even short-handed.  The accommodations below deck are comfortable; the woodwork throughout is rich and showcases the craftsmanship of the boat.  Her hullsides bear a striking awlgrip finish, and topsides are clean.  Bon Vivant is your opportunity to set sail, relax on the hook, host raft-up guests, and generally enjoy some “Good Living.”
