Description

The Pearson True North 38 is one of those rare cases where beauty and practicality seem to merge in perfect harmony.  The "Ginny B" is certainly a perfect representation of this very innovative design. She is powered by a fuel efficient single Yanmar 440 hp, which delivers a cruise speed of 20 kts. The "Ginny B" is Mr. Everett Pearson's personal yacht.  She was built and maintained to his rigorous standards.

Accommodations

Starting forward you have a large v-berth with child bert above.  The cushions were upgraded to the optional Sunbrella covers, "Brass" in color.  Moving aft on the starboard side you have the head.  The head features a vacu-flush toilet and a very easy to clean molded vanity, sink and shower stall with seat.  Opposite the head you have a hanging locker and cabinet with drawers.  just below the drawers you find the central vacuum.

The pilothouse has a very functional layout.  the helm station is forward to starboard with an ergonomic adjustable seat.  A double companion seat is to port.  The dinette is just aft and to port and easily converts to a double for sleeping.  Opposite the dinette is the galley.  All the cushions in the pilothouse were upgraded to Ultra-leather, "Buff" in color.

Excellent natural ventilation and lighting is obtained throughout the yacht by the many opening ports, hatches and windows.  The early spring and late fall boating is made comfortable with the Espar heating system.
