1977 Bristol 40 Yawl

Port Townsend, Washington

$55,000

This Bristol 40 is an absolutely lovely yacht.  Her tradtional lines, roomy cockpit and sheer reminiscent of the Hinckley Bermuda 40 make her as desirealble today as the day she was built.

Etesian is hull #58 of 150 built. Her current owners have performed numerous upgrades over the last 5 years, including new boom furling Main and Mizzen, replaced Headsail edging, roller furling and rigging, new Boom Vang, new interior cushions, mattress and curtains, new Garmin, Main sail winch, Highfield dinghy, Honda 5hp outboard and much more.

This boat is clean and well loved.  A true find and timeless classic!  

Maintenance records available upon request.
