Bristol 54.4
4 / 9 - score 55%
The Bristol 54.4 is a 54.0ft masthead sloop designed by Dieter Empacher and built in fiberglass by Bristol Yachts since 1985.
The Bristol 54.4 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is 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 an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
