Ericson 23-1
The Ericson 23-1 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Bruce King as a cruiser and first built in 1969.
The design was originally marketed by the manufacturer as the Ericson 23, but is now usually referred to as the Ericson 23-1 to differentiate it from the unrelated 1975 Ericson 23-2 design.
The design was built by Ericson Yachts in the United States from 1969 until 1971, with 140 boats completed, but it is now out of production.
The Ericson 23-1 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a spooned raked stem, a plumb transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 2,700 lb (1,225 kg) and carries 1,300 lb (590 kg) of lead ballast.
The boat has a draft of 3.67 ft (1.12 m) with the standard keel.
The boat is normally fitted with a small 3 to 6 hp (2 to 4 kW) outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settee quarter berths in the main cabin. The galley is located on the starboard side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side. Cabin headroom is 51 in (130 cm).
The design has a PHRF racing handicap of 222 to 267, with an average of 252. It has a hull speed of 5.9 kn (10.9 km/h).
