Where can I get a copy of original plans and manual for my particular model and year Pearson?
When the Pearson Yacht Corporation declared bankruptcy, all assets were put into receivership until the lawyers had worked through the details of closing the company down. An auction was held on the inventory of parts, some machinery, etc., however the architectural drawings were not included in that sale. Some of them were distributed to one of the managers of the firm and we have been trying to make them available to members and others who need them to undertake repair work, re-fits, and general maintenance. The NPYOA even secured a not-for-profit maritime museum that would be willing to assume ownership of the materials and make them available. At this point that effort is underway, and we will certainly keep members informed of our progress. One factor needs to be considered with this request. Given the number of years that have past and the several changes that have been made to most Pearsons, the original plans will be of limited real value.
