The Pearson 424 is an exceptional cruiser, and if well equipped and sailed a competitive racer. The design lines are classic, and the moderate aspect fin keel , sail plan , and skeg mounted rudder make for great sailing performance and cruising comfort. Acadia has won the 2015 and 2017 Pensacola to Havana Regattas (race and cruise) overall, the Cruising Division overall in the Regatta al Sol (Pensacola to Isla Mujeres) in 2020 and 2024; and was recognized as the Boat of the Year by two Pensacola area yacht clubs (PYC and NYC). Acadia has a race and cruise ready sail inventory, great electronics, and a tremendous inventory of spare parts (motor, electronics, and hardware). Both standing and running rigging have been maintained and replaced as necessary and are in excellent condition . The bottom was done in late 2023. Acadia has been constantly updated throughout the last ten years by the current owner and is ready for step aboard cruising. The owner can provide a current C&V survey (July 2024) and motor survey (Jan,2024) on request.

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.
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
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.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Reverse mounted engine with Walter V-drive.
The Pearson 424 (aft cockpit) and 422 (center cockpit) share the same hull and evolved from the 390 and 419.
*Rig dimensions varied significantly for this model.
