Ericson Sailboats - The brand Ericson Yachts is one of the longest running and most respected names in the production sailboat industry. Ericson Yachts was founded in 1964, and the collaboration of designer Bruce King and Ericson Yachts is one of the most durable between designer and builder ever. Over the years, Ericson Yachts have become some of the most sought after cruiser-racer type sailboats on the brokerage market. Pacific Seacraft acquired the Ericson brand in 1990, and although not currently in production, we are pleased to provide technical and parts support whenever possible.
