Pearson 385
12 / 50 - score 55%
The Pearson 385 is a 38.25ft cutter designed by William Shaw and built in fiberglass by Pearson Yachts between 1984 and 1986.
The Pearson 385 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
