1976 Pearson Masthead Sloop Racer

Escargot is a well-maintained Pearson 30 located in a marina in Stock Island, Florida for the past 1.5 years. She is the perfect sailing vessel and live aboard. Escargot spent the first 41 years of her life in Massachusetts. She was hauled and covered eight months of every year so she has had much less exposure to sun and the elements during that time. Escargot was a single owner vessel until September 2017 when she was sold to a nice couple who cruised her from New England down to St. Petersburgh, where she was purchased in December of the same year.

After purchasing, she went day-sailing, weekend cruising, and a few long trips down the coast. The Escargot spent a year at a small marina in Longboat Key before relocating to her current location in Stock Island. During her current ownership, and prior, the vessel has continued to receive the level of care and maintenance that she received through her life including oil changes,  filter changes, teak care, engine services, and much more.
