39.25' Pearson P39

1974 Pearson 39 masthead sloop. This has been a fresh water boat until winter of 2024 when it was trailered to Florida to island hop. At 4.5 draft with centerboard up it is the perfect island hopper. Pearsons are renowned for there strength and speed upwind and Sasha Bear does not disappoint. Upgraded to a Perkins m30 diesel thats very fuel efficient at 1000rpms making 6knots. The boat has a new renogy solar system with 600 watts of panels 2000 watt charger/inverter and 400ah agm house batteries.

The boat had a complete bottom job before launch w copper base w two coats of interlux followed by 2.5 coats of spartan multiyear.
