From an advertisement in Cruising World in July 1984 the Pearson 385 was touted as a “Space Ship”. The interior volume and accommodations are still very generous even by today’s standards. While on deck storage is limited, the interior is extremely spacious. Access to all the mechanical systems and engine is excellent, and the overall quality of constructions is superb. The modern divided underbody is easily driven and gives a comfortable ride. Also included here is a copy of the P-386 brochure. The P-386 is the exact same hull as the P-385 except with an aft cockpit and slightly different interior.
