1985 Pearson 43 Trawler

Very well maintained and ready to go.

The Pearson 43 is the perfect boat for comfortable weekend cruising, traveling the ICW or the Great Loop, or just spending weekends on the dock. Looking for a really comfortable live aboard? You won't do much better than this Pearson 43.  The accommodations are very nicely laid out. Roomy galley, larger than most homes/condos, allows for entertaining/cooking in comfort. Up above, the flying bridge is extremely large and would make a great outdoor sunset dining location. The boat was recently repainted traditional white, and with the blue canvas and privacy screen, she looks great. The flybridge has also (2012) had a canvas enclosure installed in 2012 along with a wet bar and refrigerator making for the perfect spot to enjoy the view from above.

Powered by twin 200hp Perkins diesel engines with 1400 hours, she cruises around 10 knots with ease.
