The Pearson 36 Cutter Pearson has come to be known as a responsive company. And the new Pearson 36 Cutter responds to the resurgence of interest in this traditional, convenient rig. If a cutter appeals to you, our new 36 should be of particular interest as much for her spaciousness belowdecks as for her beautifully balanced sailing qualities. The main salon is a unique combination of workability, uncluttered elegance, and comfort. You can cook, navigate, socialize, or quietly fade without tripping over anybody. The foldaway drop-leaf table conceals some neat shelves while outboard port and starboard there is more stowage than needed by even the most dedicated long distance cruiser. The libation locker is at a hospitable distance from the dining and entertaining area, on the starboard bulkhead. The head has a separate stand-up shower stall with soak tub seat. And if you've never cruised with a separate shower and all the water to go with it, you will now know what you've been missing. A handsome, mirrored vanity with built-in laundry hamper, and ample stowage complete the scene. For the navigator, there's a no-nonsense chart table, with room to spread out all the attendant paraphernalia. There's a two-position swing-out seat, and loads of space for instrumentation. Go for a walk below. Really go for a walk! There's a lot of headroom, and a vast expanse of varnished mahogany trimmed with laminated ash to wander through. Settees are deep and long and the one to starboard can be converted to a double. The cockpit is unusually deep and roomy for a boat this size, great for sociable cruising and efficient sail handling. There are large sail lockers to port and starboard, while the lazarette stows optional propane tanks or miscellaneous gear. The self-tending club forestaysail has its own traveler on the foredeck. Rigging that's easy to handle and designed to bring the boat to maximum performance with a minimum of muscle is what the 36 Cutter is all about. With the jib top furled, tacking is a cinch. Just turn the wheel. The owner's stateroom is as comfortable as it is private. And keeping it shipshape is easy, when there are built-in bureaus and lockers, in addition to the outboard shelves for stowage. The V-berth filler stows conveniently overhead. The generous hanging locker is cedar lined. Perfect for extended cruising. For the galley gourmet, it's all there. The three burner stove with oven, double stainless steel sink, huge icebox and wondrous amount of storage space are all part of a plot to make you
