Classic Ted Hood design Bristol 35.5. Nice condition overall with a replacement FWC Yanmar diesel with low hours!
Classic Ted Hood designed Bristol 35.5 in quite nice condition and a low-hour replacement Yanmar diesel. The long-time owners are retiring from boating and she is ready for new adventures.
The boat has been maintained and it shows inside and out. Extremely traditional sloop design with a surprising balance of comfort and performance. She is very good in light air and only requires the use of a moderate 120-130% headsail to get optimum performance.
There is a large cockpit with wheel steering and binnacle-mounted instruments and a compass. The electronics on the boat are older and due for replacement
Self-tailing primary winches and the aforementioned headsails make this an easy boat to sail short or singlehanded, yet she has the room for a full crew when available.
Down below is equally traditional and comfortable. There is a large forward-V with hanging locker and large enclosed head behind. The main salon features a drop-down dinette with opposing slide-out double settee / berth.
Further aft is a good-sized nav station to port ahead of a large quarter berth. Opposite is well equipped L-shaped galley with stove / oven, large ice box, sink and plenty of storage and counter space.
This is a wonderful classic sailboat ready for new adventures. Equally at home as a club racer or for extended cruising this one will likely address all your needs for some time to come. Call me today to discuss this further.
Reason for selling is retiring from boating.
