Pearson sprite 20ft

[Fredcrawley463]

I have recently bought what I think is a Pearson Sprite 20. I cannot find anything about them on the internet. Mine has a makers plate "Pearson Bros Arundul" does anyone have any information about these boats?

Hi Fredcawley,

welcome to the forums.

Wherabouts in the world are you ?

I know most UK boats - especially lift keelers - but have not heard of your boat, and if that's how ' Arundul ' is spelt on the makers' plate it's wrong for around here, should be ' Arundel ' so I'm thinking you're a way away ?

No your spelling is correct. I am in Essex. Apparently the model was displayed at the 1976 London Boat Show but that's all I have managed to discover so far
