These two drawings show the profile and interior layout of the Pearson Wanderer, to help orient the reader to the boat. I wasn't able to figure out how to rotate these drawing and maintain and reasonable size. Please feel free to email me (click on the "send mail" link on the right side at the top of this page) and I will send you larger files.
After you page through this blog, if you have any questions please email me. Also, a few more photos are available and can be emailed.

This photo shows the entire width of the galley at the aft end of the main salon. The boat isn't heeling; I just don't seem to hold the camera level sometimes.
The VHF radio is mounted on the side of the white box in the center. This box covers the reel-style centerboard winch. The battery selection switch can be seen just outboard of the radio, whose microphone hangs just inside the companionway.
There is a small drawer in the structure behind the removable ladder. Both lower panels in that structure are doors which swing open for access to parts of the engine. After removing the ladder and the drawer that whole structure can be removed for major access to the inboard engine.
The counter to the left of the photo (starboard side of the boat) is the top of the large ice box. This also serves as the chart table if you are using paper charts to suppliment your GPS.
All the interior cushions have just been re-covered.

Adding a bow roller has greatly facilitated hauling our anchor and its chain/rope rode. Unless one were doing an awfully large number of anchoring, in deep water, just adding the bow roller eliminates the need for a windlass on a boat of 30 feet or less.
We usually carry a large Danforth-style anchor. We use the Nicro deck vent as a hawse pipe for the anchor rode.
