The Pearson Vanguard is a classic Philip Rhodes–designed cruiser from the 1960s — a strong, sea-kindly fiberglass boat with timeless lines and the kind of easy, forgiving manners that made early Pearsons legends. A proper full-bodied cruiser built to sail and to last.
Shout out to Ethan — a buddy and client who came through the Boat Buyer Consulting Program. We hunted down a badass Pearson Vanguard 33 for him, and it turned out to be exactly the right boat.
We sail it around the Bay together sometimes, and he absolutely loves his boat. That's the whole point of the BBCP — not just buying a boat, but landing on the right one and actually loving the life that comes with it.
Photos of the Pearson Vanguard 33 coming soon. Follow along on Instagram.
