ATTRACTIVELY PRICED FOR IMMEDIATE SALE- VERY CLEAN AND TURNKEY WITH SHOAL DRAFT!!

Your first impression of “Wickersham” shows a well maintained and nicely outfitted vessel. Her dark blue hull complimented by a red boot stripe is classic and eye catching, her topsides are impeccably maintained and the non-skid is fresh and secure underfoot. The toe rail is varnished teak and the lifelines are above knee height, which is comforting while both offshore and at the dock. All canvas, sail cover, dodger and bimini top are brand new, as is almost all of the running rigging which runs aft into the cockpit, ideal for short hand sailing but with a cockpit large enough for extra crew while racing or day sailing. For cruising she is equipped with a West Marine 8’ roll up dingy which can either be stored for passage making or hung from her davits over the transom. At the helm is a 32” Stainless steel wheel with a gray leather cover, Edson steering pedestal with a Richie compass and a chart plotter. There is also a new canvas cover for the binnacle to protect the helm and instrumentation. Moving forward under the dodger there are self- tailing winches and clutch breaks on both sides of the companionway allowing you easy control of all aspects of the rig including a two point single line reefing system, perfect for single hand sailing. There are two sets of companionway shutter boards, one with clear glass and a reinforced latch hasp and a second set which have mosquito screens for those nights when anchored in the Islands or Keys. The spare set has a canvas cover for secure storage below decks. Other cockpit features include a new instrumentation panel for the Yanmar low hour diesel and a large port lazaret that will easily hold your fenders, dock lines and even room for your rolled up dingy.

As you enter through the companionway, you will be impressed with the spacious and bright main salon with 6' headroom,a centerline table, an L-shaped settee which pulls out to make a double berth, a single settee opposite and a V-berth forward, all with dark blue velour cushions in excellent condition. Under the bunks and V berth there is more than ample storage for a vessel of her size. Opening port lights and overhead hatches give great ventilation below while underway or for cooking at anchorage. Other features usually reserved for larger vessels includes a stand up chart table to starboard with a chart storage compartment above. In addition, the chart table lifts to access the huge fridge/freezer that makes extended cruising possible. Aft of this is a large quarter berth with storage under and a shelf over which makes an excellent sea berth for overnight passages. Dividing the main salon and the V berth there is a separate head/shower combination with a small sink and a mounted or hand held shower. The cabin sole was just replaced with new teak and holly throughout the entire vessel. Walking below decks aft towards the companion way stairs, there is the nicely laid out galley with a gimbaled 2 burner stove/oven in stainless steel, a microwave, ample counter tops for food preparation and a deep sink with high bar style faucet. Removing the stairs to the cockpit reveals the engine’s sound deadening box with removable top front and side which allows easy access to fuel filter, water pump, engine belts and main strainer making service work easy for the boat owner. Behind the engine there is easy access to both the dripless shaft seal and the batteries, which are new lead acid maintenance free group 27 marine, house and starter batteries, and were replaced in 2015 with a new marine multi charge battery charger for balanced charging at the dock.

The Pearson 31-2 : 1987–1991

In 1987 the Pearson 31-2 went into production as a new design by Bill Shaw

Contemporary and Traditional Values

Bill Shaw said; "With ample sail area proportioned into a powerful rig, and a contemporary hull with modern appendages, the new P31 has already shown her abilities as a fast boat". It was produced until 1991 and available with a standard or shoal draft wing keel. Hull number 268 was the last boat out of the Portsmouth factory before closing for good in 1991.

In 1996 Cal-Pearson re-introduced the P31 during a short lived revival of the Pearson brand.

Pearson 31-2

P31-2 (1987 Model)

Today we hear a lot about contemporary and traditional values as they apply to the many facets of our lifestyles. When these concepts are applied to yacht design, I have never considered them to be mutually exclusive. On the traditional side, the basic principles of hydrodynamics, aerodynamics, and human engineering continue to apply. Regardless of how you use your boat, the back to basics approach used by our designers insures you, the owner, that your boat will perform over a wide range of conditions and still provide engineered comfort even at the dock. The contemporary ingredient in the new P31 manifests itself in the form of a new elliptical keel in the standard version, or an optional wing keel that provides shallower draft. The P31's interior arrangement is traditional, but with a few new twists. Aft there is a huge open quarterberth that extends under the cockpit, spacious galley with unusually good storage to port, and a clever combination ice box/chart table to starboard. In the salon there is an offset centerline table which makes moving fore 'n aft easier, a spacious dinette, which converts to a double berth without using the table, and again, plenty of storage. Further forward, there is a roomy head with shower, and still further forward an exceptionally spacious V-berth area. On deck, the basic elements composed of cockpit, cabin trunk, etc., are still there naturally, but rather than simply translating wooden shapes with hard edges into fiberglass form, as so many others do, we have exploited the virtues of fiberglass with contoured seats that fit the human form and deck styling that fits the wind. Equally important to the cruiser or racer is the boat as a performer. With ample sail area proportioned into a powerful rig, and a contemporary hull with modern appendages, the new P31 has already shown her abilities as a fast boat. A very important factor even for those of us who never race. Come Sail With Us...

Bill Crain's 1991 P31-2 (#268) was the last boat out of the factory before closing for good in 1991. He made a digital copy of his owners manual and contributed it for sharing on the web. The manual has a fair amount of detail for the 31-2 and there is a fair amount of cross over for other Pearson boats on the line at the end of production. The models include: P27, P28-2, P33-2, P34-2, P35-2, P36-2, P37-2, P39-2, P38.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

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.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

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.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

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.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

The second PEARSON 31, (here designated as PEARSON 31-2), and not to be confused with an earlier version(1977) also designed by William Shaw. A shoal draft, wing keel was also available. (draft: 3.9’; disp: 10200 lbs.) Re-introduced in 1996 during a short lived revival of the Pearson brand. (Cal-Pearson Corp.)
