Bristol 47.7
7 / 29 - score 59%
The Bristol 47.7 is a 47.0ft masthead sloop designed by Ted Hood and built in fiberglass by Bristol Yachts between 1979 and 1994.
75 units have been built.
The Bristol 47.7 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is good. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
