This is one of the boats that Pearson produced after purchasing the molds from U.S. Yacht. I had a 79 U.S. 25 that later became the Pearson 25. At the time I called and talked to Pearson and they said that they made no changes to the boat when they built it.

Mast height 32'6"
Sail area 224 sq. ft.

This is an interesting boat as it has wide stern of current racers and is very flat bottom. It has a dagger board and came with just about every go fast adjustment you can think of. I have sailed it a couple of times in light air and it is fast.
