The Pearson 30 is a 29.79ft masthead sloop designed by William Shaw and built in fiberglass by Pearson Yachts between 1971 and 1981.

The Pearson 30 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
This boat has a good score and ranks in the top quarter. It is an excellent choice.
