The boat
Paperbird is our ‘new-to-us’ 1984 Pearson 422, hull #7. She is a center cockpit, sloop-rigged, 42 footer that we bought in March of 2011. We’ve spent the last 3 years doing a major refit literally from top to bottom. Everything from the rigging to the bilge pump system and everything in between has been replaced, rebuilt, or added.
