David: I’ve owned a Bristol 30 since my C&C 25 was sunk in a hurricane. They’re intriguing boats.
Designed by Halsey Herreshoff as a CCA racer in the ‘60s, the 30 is no match for IOR boats in light air. But it is surprisingly fast at 12 knots of wind and above. In a flat bay with no current, I’ve reached sustained speeds of 7.6 knots more than a few times when the wind climbed into the 20s. The nicest characteristic of the boat is that it has a smooth ride in big seas. It also sails well under jib only. Above 12 knots, you can drop the main and cruise comfortably at 5-5.5 knots with reasonable (for a full-keeled boat) pointing ability. If you want to know more, you can email me offlist.

Or, better, contact details?

Would like to find it a good home for very short money (if any at all...not clear yet). My understanding is take it and fix it up (I don't think it needs much, but its been a few years since she has been run) and its yours. Located on Southcoast Massachusetts. David F.
