The Pearson 31-2, often referred to as the 31-Mk II, represents a sophisticated evolution in the "second generation" of Pearson Yachts. Launched in 1987 and produced until the company’s closure in 1991, this model was a clean-sheet design by Bill Shaw, intended to replace the aging 31-foot hulls of the 1960s and 70s. Unlike its Alberg-designed predecessors, which featured narrow beams and heavy displacement, the 31-2 embraced the design trends of the late 1980s: a wider beam carried aft, a more vertical stem, and a significantly more voluminous interior. It was positioned as a performance-oriented coastal cruiser that could hold its own in club racing while providing the amenities expected of a modern weekend voyager.
