Here is a well kept example of this proven Racer/Cruiser.  The Pearson 37 has been shown to perform on the race course and provide comfort for extended cruising.  Consistent upgrades makes her ready to go.  New engine in 2002 assures reliability. A great way to get out on the water at a reasonable price. 

Owner Comments:

Great all around boat. Whether racing around the buoys, or point-to-point, cruising with the spouse or the family Gringo has you covered. This well-appointed racer cruiser has been set up for ease of single/short-handed performance cruising/racing by a long-time distance racer. With a powerful autopilot and remote control, you can work the foredeck to set the socked asymmetric spinnaker while adjusting your heading if needed.

 I do it all the time racing single-handed against fully crewed boats, or simply cruising with my wife. If the wind pipes up a double reefed main and hank on the #4 on its own dyneema solent stay sheeted to an outboard lead is good to 34+ knots hard on the wind. We did that in the 2013 Block Island race from the Gut to Stamford hard on the wind. We smoked up the Sound so fast the PHRF committee changed the rating which is now at 117 with the inventory noted below. Notably, no one was on the rail, the crew was below, freezing and passing the bucket.

 SH/DH racing, performance cruising sail inventory: 135% membrane jib (2017) on roller furler, Dacron Main (2014) with two big reefs, asymmetric A3 spinnaker (2021), and a Dacron #4 with Wickard snaps which fits to a dyneema solent stay (2017) secured to a grunty stem head setup (1 inch of G10 spanning the hull to deck joint at the very pointy end). I can hank this sail on at the mast then move it forward to the quick connect at the stem head. Note Gringo has a Z-sails Carbon AP 155 as well Pentax #3 but I don’t sail crewed up anymore so I don’t use them. Both sails have some good life in them. These pair well with the 1.5 ounce and .06 ounce Z-Sails chute if you want to race fully crewed and the older LI/HI sails are still up to the task for club racing. This refined sail inventory developed over 8 years of single handed sailing makes Gringo a great performance cruiser and a very competitive racer (see attached race record). The jib is cut with a higher than normal clew making it a great reaching sail. The hydraulic backstay allows for rapidly changing gears to be fully powered up (15-18 degree heal) going to weather in 8 knots of breeze, remember its only me and I’m not on the rail, and depower steadily as the wind comes up, 1 st reef upwind around at 15 Knots true. Cockpit adjustable genoa cars and endless outboard leads make Gringo a potent upwind and reaching sailor. She is very easy to balance. I trim her based on angle of heel and rudder angle.
