The 1981 Pearson 530 is a 53-foot fiberglass ketch designed as a performance cruiser suitable for both coastal and offshore work. Her center cockpit layout and ketch rig offer versatility and manageable handling for single or short-handed sailing. With a board-up draft of 5 feet 9 inches and bridge clearance of 63.5 feet, she is well-suited to Intracoastal Waterway cruising. Maximum draft reaches 10 feet 6 inches. The yacht cruises at 7 knots and achieves a maximum speed of 12 knots.
Below deck, the yacht offers two staterooms and two heads. The master stateroom features a centerline berth and en-suite head with shower. Additional spaces include a spacious salon and galley, plus a custom pantry and laundry room. The boat has been extensively refitted and re-rigged with modern equipment and sails throughout.
Power comes from a Yammer 110 hp diesel engine paired with a Northern Lights generator. The yacht is equipped with a water maker and chiller air conditioning system, including climate control in the custom enclosed center cockpit. Electronics are comprehensive. The boat was surveyed in 2020.
