The Pearson 28 2 is a 28.46ft masthead sloop designed by William Shaw and built in fiberglass by Pearson Yachts between 1985 and 1989.
The Pearson 28 2 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
