The Pearson 24, introduced in 1968, stands as a pivotal transitional design in the lineage of Pearson Yachts. Coming on the heels of the massive success of the Carl Alberg-designed Triton, the Pearson 24 was one of the early projects led by Bill Shaw after he joined the company. It represents a departure from the heavy, full-keel traditionalism of the early 1960s toward a more modern, performance-oriented underbody. Though its production run was relatively short—largely because it was soon eclipsed by the legendary Pearson 26—the 24 remains a respected "pocket cruiser" that offered a more spirited sailing experience than many of its contemporaries. It was designed to provide a balanced entry point for sailors graduating from day sailors to overnight-capable coastal cruisers.
