1985 Pearson 530

This 1985 Pearson 530 is a rare example of the model built with a sloop/cutter rig configuration. At 53 feet with a 15-foot beam, the fiberglass hull provides a capable platform for extended cruising, powered by an 85-horsepower Perkins diesel engine. The boat benefits from thoughtful upgrades and consistent maintenance by a professional service yard.

Below deck, the yacht offers three cabins and two heads arranged for comfortable cruising. The interior is notably bright with abundant natural light throughout. The galley and living spaces support extended time away from the dock.

Recent system additions enhance self-sufficiency: a Northern Lights generator installed in 2021, large solar panels, and a wind generator. Electronics have been upgraded with Furuno systems. The boat is equipped with air conditioning featuring reverse cycle heating, and the cockpit is fully enclosed. These upgrades reflect the owner's commitment to making the boat both capable and comfortable for longer passages.
