Can anyone share any comments, insights, opinions, and/or advice (positive or negative) with me regarding their firsthand/personal experience or knowledge of the Pearson 390 (vintage 1972/1973)?

I'm considering purchasing a 1972 P390 for extended coastal/near-shore (eastern seaboard, ICW, Florida Keys, etc.) and/or off-shore (Bahamas, Caribbean, etc.) live-aboard cruising; found a boat in pretty good condition (for a 42-year-old boat) whose current owner has recently done some refit work (new engine in 1990, new standing rigging in 2005, awlgrip repainted in 2012, etc.).

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration!

Peace and blessings,
