Seller's Description

When you come aboard this Pearson, you will likely say…“This is not a 1974 sailboat!”

The Pearson 10Ms were designed by Bill (William) Shaw and built by Pearson Yachts in Rhode Island.

This Pearson 10M - SeaFever may have been originally built in 1974, but its condition isn’t what is expected for a boat of that age.

Just take a Look at the picture gallery. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but here are a few of them that demonstrate what a beautiful vessel this Pearson is and the extent of her condition.

Beginning in 2010, this boat has undergone an extensive refurbish with numerous upgrades. Although the overall structure of the Pearson is well known, the recent modernization has transformed her into the boat she is today.

The original gas engine was replaced with a Universal M25 diesel on reinforced stringers, with Vetus K75 engine mounts. A new fuel supply system, and completely new engine rewiring was installed along with a new engine instrument panel mounted on the binnacle including new Edson throttle and gear shift levers.

The boat was hauled out to inspect and paint the bottom. She received an exemplary evaluation.

In 2015 she had her rigging inspected and tuned along with the replacement of the Roller Furler Delrin bearing. New Covers were provided for her head sails, and mainsail. The teak was redone with 5 coats of varnish.

In 2018, another Haulout and Bottom Paint was completed, along with installing a new 3 blade prop, new PYI dripless seal, new shaft coupling, new VHF radio, and several other routine maintenance items.

A modification to the cooling system was made to allow for a freshwater flushing system. When you return to the dock, simply hook up a fresh water hose and flush the engine. You won’t see this on many other sailboats of this vintage.

In 2020, more improvements were made such as the installation of a Bluetooth music system and marine cockpit speakers. The hull was buffed and waxed which makes it look as it did when it was first purchased in 1974.

All winches were serviced and 5 more coats of varnish applied to the teak.

You will want to see this boat for yourself in order to really appreciate all that has been done to upgrade it’s condition and sailing ability.

She has a factory installed Racing package (Instruments). When you own this amazing boat, she always stands ready for your next sailing adventure whether it be club racing or bluewater cruising.

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.0 kn
Classic: 7.13 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

7.95 knots
Classic formula: 7.13 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
15.6
<16: under powered

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
15.62
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
43.8
>40: stiffer, more powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

43.77
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
244.7
200-275: moderate

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
244.69
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
26.4
20-30: coastal cruiser

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
26.37
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
1.9
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

The 10M came with several different engine installations. Most were powered by the Atomic Four gas engine. Diesels were optional with a Faryman 25hp in 75, a Westerbeake 20hp diesel in 76. the Faryman again in 77, and a Volvo 23hp (MD11) from 78-80.
