Hello everyone I am looking at a Pearson 35 to purchase. The boat is loaded and in great condition ready to sail. My question is does anyone here own one and can provide feedback. Also is this a safe boat to travel the coast of the USA and Island hop the caribbean. I am concern with the boat under ruff seas and conditions. One last thing apparently it has an encapsulated keel. Feedback on that would also be appreciated. All feedback appreciated , thank you in advance.

The thing you should be more worried about is a complete lack of skills and experience. Just about any boat will do what you want, It's not hardcore offshore sailing, if the owner is capable is another story entirely. Don't rely on the boat to make up for a lack of sailing skills, you will end up as a statistic this way.
There is a lot more to doing this safely than just knowing which line to pull to make the boat go. Courses will give you the basics, experience will give you the rest.
