Built during Pearson Yachts' heyday in the 1970s, this 36-foot cutter represents the Rhode Island builder's commitment to solid construction and traditional sailing virtues. The cutter rig configuration sets this model apart from many of its contemporaries, offering enhanced sail handling flexibility and improved balance in varying wind conditions. Pearson's reputation for building robust, seaworthy vessels is well-represented in this design. The company was known for constructing boats that could handle serious offshore work while remaining manageable for coastal cruising. The cutter rig particularly shines in this regard, allowing crews to reduce sail area progressively by dropping the jib and sailing under staysail and main, or to fine-tune sail plans for optimal performance. This design appeals to sailors seeking a capable passage-maker that doesn't sacrifice comfort for seaworthiness. The traditional lines and practical layout reflect Pearson's understanding of what cruising sailors actually need. While not built for racing, the boat offers respectable performance under sail with the reliability that made Pearson a trusted name among serious cruisers. The robust construction and proven design make it suitable for extended coastal cruising and capable offshore passages.
