Our site
is devoted to the wonderful world of the
Pearson 323. Although the last one of these Bill Shaw-designed craft was built
over 20 years ago, hundreds of them are still afloat, being enjoyed for coastal
cruising and even some racing.
Even though there is no formal association of Pearson 323 owners, this site will offer a venue for those who own one of these vessels where they can share information about them. For those who don't, you are welcome to come in and look around. If you like what you see, follow the links here and maybe find one of your own.
Once you get one of your own, you'll probably spend time making her more to your liking. For all of those projects, there is a special section on this site where we can post the details of these repairs, modifications and upgrades.
Within the 323 Registry section is information on the boats
and their owners. For those who have provided links to their own 323 Web pages,
you can find them by clicking on the boat name.
My name is Dave Breski and I sail my Pearson 323 Wind Drifter around Buzzards Bay and the southern New England coast. It will take a while to go through all of the great pages Don has put together but I hope that you will bear with me and continue to enjoy what you find here and find it helpful and informative. If you have questions, comments or want to contribute to the site please let me know.
