Over the years, renowned designers associated with the Bristol brand included Carl Alberg, Halsey Herreshoff, Paul Coble and Ted Hood of America’s Cup fame. The yard built over 4,440 boats of 22 to72 feet before eventually folding in 1997. Hood’s decimal series of centerboard sailers, 27.7 to 51.1, can still be seen on the water and enjoy a reputation for both speed and a seakindly motion.
