Bristol 56.6
10 / 31 - score 57%
The Bristol 56.6 is a 56.5ft cutter designed by Dieter Empacher and built in unknown material by Bristol Yachts since 1986.
The Bristol 56.6 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is excellent.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
