HHM Valley Sailing is proud to have 6 of these reliable vessels in our fleet:

22’ Pearson, Ensign

Time-honored Reliability

The Ensign hull design by Carl Alberg is based on the Pearson Electra. He modified the design for the Ensign in response to customer demand for a day-sailer with a larger cockpit and smaller cabin. Pearson Yachts was the only builder of the boat from 1962-1983 with 1775 boats constructed before ceasing production. Production was resumed in 2001 by Ensign Spars, Inc. of Dunedin Florida, where reportedly another 33 boats, (hull #2000 and above), have been produced as of 2019.

Consider this: The Ensign is the only sailboat from Pearson Yachts that is still in production today- and Pearson has been closed for close to 3 decades. Now isn't that a true test of time!

The Ensign is by far the largest one-design fleet of full-keel sailboats in the country. It was inducted into the American Sailboat Hall of Fame in 2002.

Consider what has made the Ensign so popular… a large eight foot cockpit with full length teak seats so perfect for the safety and convenience of a large family; a twin-berth cuddy cabin with optional head for those overnights or weekends; national recognition as a one-design racing class; longevity of manufacturer; strict class rules for uniformity; Pearson Quality!

HHM Valley Sailing is honored to have 2 of these versatile vessels in our fleet:

22’ Pearson, Electra

Electra Versatility

Electra, following fast in wake of the fabulous Pearson Triton, is setting sales and sailing records of her own. This 22' 6" fiberglass sloop, also designed by Carl A. Alberg, has proven versatility as a MORC racer, day-sailer and over-nighter. From the moment you step aboard, you'll recognize her Triton heritage in her fine lines, quality construction, and universal appeal. This universal appeal is a direct result of a thorough survey to determine the type of boat most wanted and needed by American Yachtsmen.

Once again the Pearson-Alberg combination pays off! This exiting addition to Midget Ocean Racing fleets does equally well in triangular day sailing and in inter-club one-design competition. Hull sections are designed for fast sailing, and maintaining speed in heavy going. Masthead rig on aluminum spars and roller reefing contribute to the flexibility of her easily handled sail area.

When day-sailing, you'll appreciate the comfortable, safe, self-bailing cockpit, the handy cabin with two berths and enclosed toilet if desired, the specially designed stowage locker for your outboard motor, and of course, the tight fiberglass bottom, topsides and deck which change the many hours formerly spent on upkeep to extra hours of spirited sailing.
