The Independence 20 is a specialized 20foot daysailer that represents a significant departure from the traditional cruiserracer market. Designed by Everett Pearson and produced by TPI Composites (TillotsonPearson Inc.) under the Independence Yachts brand, the vessel was conceived primarily as a highstability platform for adaptive sailing. It was the centerpiece of the ShakeALeg Miami program, an organization dedicated to providing water sports opportunities for people with physical and developmental challenges. Built with the same Scrimp (Seemann Composites Resin Infusion Molding Process) technology that Everett Pearson championed at TPI, the Independence 20 is renowned for its durability and "unsinkable" characteristics. Unlike the earlier massproduced Pearson models, this boat was built in more limited numbers, tailored specifically for safety, accessibility, and ease of use in coastal environments.
