Pearson 24

The Pearson 24 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by William Shaw as a cruiser and first built in 1967.

The design is a development of the Lark 24.

The design was built by Pearson Yachts in the United States from 1967 until 1969, but it is now out of production.

The Pearson 24 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig; a spooned, raked stem; a raised counter, angled transom, a keel-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed modified long keel, with a cutaway forefoot. It displaces 4,300 lb (1,950 kg) and carries 1,800 lb (816 kg) of ballast.

The boat has a draft of 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the standard keel.

The boat is normally fitted with a small 4 to 6 hp (3 to 4 kW) outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settees in the main cabin. The galley is located on both sides just aft of the bow cabin. The galley is equipped with sink to port and an optional two-burner stove to starboard. The optional head is located centered under the bow cabin "V"-berth. Cabin headroom is 57 in (145 cm).

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 252 and a hull speed of 5.8 kn (10.7 km/h).
