The Pearson Flyer represents a significant departure from the heavier, traditional cruisers of the company's early years, emerging in 1981 as a dedicated performanceoriented racercruiser. Designed by William Shaw to capitalize on the competitive Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) circuit, the Flyer was built for speed, agility, and highperformance PHRF racing while maintaining enough amenity for weekend coastal cruising. With its fractional rig, deep fin keel, and lowprofile coachroof, the boat signaled Pearson’s intent to compete with the sportier offerings from J/Boats and C&C Yachts during the early 1980s. While the Flyer shares a 30foot footprint with the legendary Pearson 30, it is a fundamentally different vessel; where the Pearson 30 was a mastheadrigged family cruiser, the Flyer was a "sprint" boat, utilizing a lighter displacement and a more modern hull form.
