The Pearson 530 is elegance without ostentation. She is the consummate performance cruising Yacht.
Designer William H.Shaw (Bill) - quote:
"I can't think of a single good reason why a big, roomy cruising boat with all the comforts of home should sail like a house. Just because that boat has a generator, air conditioning, wet bar, queen size bed, two heads with separate showers, and enough room to play hide 'n seek is no reason at all for the boat to be unresponsive or dull to sail. Sort of like a limousine with sports car handling.
The 530 will appeal to the sailor who loves to see the bow of a powerful boat shoulder aside the sea, while going upwind with a minimum amount of leeway. She will appeal to the sailor who appreciates what an extra few knots mean over a long passage, And, with her double-head rig and it's self tending staysail, she will appeal strongly to the couple who wants a boat this size without the need for crew.
The 530 was meant to be, and is, a true performance cruising Yacht. A gentle, forgiving, easy to handle boat that, quite frankly, fools you. She makes it easy to forget that she weighs over 21 tons!
My guess is that if you've come far enough to be considering a boat like the 530, you know precisely what I am saying. It boils down to this - if you like a boat that sails powerfully, in complete comfort and safety, you will like the Pearson 530."
