Owners Comments and Boat History

Known for its solid fiberglass construction, roomy layout, and offshore capability, the Pearson 365 is a favorite among liveaboards and long-distance sailors. Designed by Bill Shaw, the 365 Ketch is a proven bluewater and coastal cruiser with timeless lines and a comfortable, spacious interior.

Garuda is a 36-footer with a shoal-draft keel (4.50 ft / 1.37 m), ideal for accessing Caribbean anchorages that other boats of its size struggle with. A masthead rig with 45.67 ft / 14.22m of air draft makes her just as capable in the Intercoastal. 7,300.00 lb / 3,311 kg of lead ballast adds to her stability, while a skeg-hung rudder and rugged hand-laid-up fiberglass hull make her very forgiving for the captain and crew.

Garuda was purchased by the current owner in 2020 and was significantly upgraded into a fully functional bluewater cruiser. It was last surveyed in October of 2022, is fully insured, and has been cruising Florida, the Bahamas, the Turks & Caicos, and the Dominican Republic.
