Used Pearson 38 Sailboats for Sale

The Pearson 38, introduced in 1989, represents a modern interpretation of the cruising sailboat from a builder renowned for its fiberglass innovations. Designed by the prolific William Shaw, this masthead sloop was conceived as a comfortable and easily handled coastal cruiser, capable of accommodating two couples in privacy and safety. While its production run was brief, cut short by Pearson Yachts' eventual closure, the 38 aimed to offer a refined sailing experience with a focus on livability and sensible performance, building upon the builder's legacy of robust construction.
