I’m showing her this weekend
I am moving to France and unfortunately need to sell my lovely Bristol. I have been cruising on her solo for the last year shes a sturdy, simple boat that sails well. Designed by Herreshoff, shes a steady blue water boat that can handle strong seas. She has all the essential systems but isnt over complicated and therefore relatively easy to maintain. Shes ideal for someone who wants to live on a boat for the first time or perhaps a couple looking for a weekender.
Heres more data (keel version): https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/bristol-29
Theyre are more things but if youre interested, just reach out and we can set a time to come see the boat. I have the title ready and Im looking to sell her relatively fast. Shes obviously an older boat and needs a bit of TLC but shes ready to take on more adventures. I hope I can sell her to someone wholl enjoy her as much as I did.
Equipment: Features: Atomic 4 engine that runs reliably with 25gal tank. Have spare impeller. 200W solar with DC power in the boat. Also have battery pack that charges off solar for AC power. New starter and house batteries New VHF with AIS receiver. Also have chart plotter and depth sounder Jib is in good condition on a roller furler. Mainsail is in good conditions with lazy jacks. Also have backup main sail and storm sail. Galley has two burner propane stove, sink with filtered water, and icebox. Spare winches V berth is cozy with a mattress topper and comfortable for two people. The table in the saloon also turns into a bed. Cockpit is surprisingly large for a boat her size. Tiller steering which means tiller is out of the way when not being used. Has a bimini and dodger in good condition. I have hundreds of feet of spare line also. From halyards to docking lines, etc. The ground tackle is rock solid. I have been through two hurricanes on anchor. I have 100ft of chain and 200ft with a 35lbs CQR are the primary anchor. I have 2 other spare anchors. There are fans that clip on anywhere and AC unit that hooks to DC power. Also have electrical heater. Many spare parts water pump, water filter, bilge pump, etc. Dinghy also available
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Early models were fitted with a Graymarine Gas Engine.
Keel/CB version
BU: 3.3’/1.0m BD:5.8’/1.77m
(listed dimensions for tall rig).
(Shorter rig: I=34.16’/10.41m P=29.16’/8.89m)
The later BRISTOL 30 is very similar, with an updated coachroof.
