The Pearson Packet is a modified full keel day sailor, the bow is slightly covered, but not all of the way back to the mast. I know of only one Packet owners: Jay Bliss (jwbliss"at"bellsouth.net) who writes: I'm searching for info on the Pearson in my backyard, a Packet by the recollection of its previous owner. 18'lod, 21loa, 6.5'beam, sliding gunter rig annd I'd bet that Carl A designed her, but I have NO clue really. Open cockpit, sloop, built 1963 according to my FL title. I'm in St Augustine. Hopefully your reservoir has further info!!??? Thanks, Jay Bliss
