This 1978 Vineyard Vixen (#27) was purchased by current owner in 2006 and brought to Lake Charlevoix, Michigan at that time.  She was then optimized for short handed sailing with the addition of the Hoyt Jib Boom System and new sails.  Everything can be handled from the cockpit, with no need to go on deck while sailing!  She was repowered with a  Yanmar diesel in 1997. Opus is now out of the water and in storage for the winter season.

This 1988 Pearson 28 "Commotion" is a fresh water vessel ready for her next big adventure. The Pearson 28 was the third generation of boats this size, and represents what was the very latest thinking in design, engineering, and owner preferences. A quick glance at her 24' 4 1/2" waterline length and 9' 10" beam dimensions indicate just how spacious she is. Truly, an extremely accommodating 28 footer. The challenge was to use this space to maximum advantage and this is where their design group carved out new territory. For example, there are two real double berths - one forward and another enclosed stateroom aft to port - they provide desirable privacy while the enclosed head is located further aft using a wider part of the boat to its best advantage.
The galley is located amidships with stove, sink, and stowage to port, and with a large ice box covered by an equally large chart table/counter to starboard. For a smaller boat, this is a superior arrangement as it maximizes galley work space and ice box volume. The 28's sailing qualities are superb. Of particular note is her ability to stand up to a breeze due mainly to the form stability produced by her wide beam at the waterline. Pearson set out to design a performance cruiser/racer and from all appearances, they succeeded. To summarize, the 28 is what people came to expect from Pearson. She is uniquely different and was just right for the requirements of sailors at the time. Namely, quality, excellent sailing characteristics, sea-kindly motion, spaciousness, and privacy.
