Elizabethan 31

sailingdog · #1 (**permalink**) 01-14-2007

A friend of mine is looking at a boat called an Elizabethan 31. She wanted me to find out more about it for her, but I haven't been able to find out much about them. She's looking at it for use as a liveaboard for when she at grad school, and then for use as a bluewater cruiser after that.

Any idea of what kind of construction these things have... are they cored hulls or decks, etc.

They have an owners association:

Also a listing with limited info:

I found the owner's association web site, but it doesn't really have much information on the boat there.

Hi Sailingdog,

I know it's probably not much but here is a link as well.

How do I get that big American flag next to my country to disappear? I don't know how it got there and I don't even live in the U.S. ...

Thanks

I guess that explains part of the problem... there were only about 40 of the Elizabethan 31 sloop built...which means they're a fairly uncommon sailboat.

An Elizabethan 31 is not too common and your tag says you are in New England. Is this the boat in New Hamburg New York by any chance? If it is I looked at buying her before finding my Tartan 34C.
All the best,
