A worsening physical disability will soon require me to reluctantly

give up my 1972 Bristol 26. In the past three years I have: rigged new

sails, installed roller reefing with 120% genoa, sandblasted and

plasticized the bottom, painted all. Installed new 9.9 Yamaha electric

start outboard in well, install permanent 11.5 gas tank, fitted new

delran bearings in rudder shaft. Also, Standard depth finder, compass,

knotmeter. Can anyone suggest what a reasonable and fair asking

price for this boat would be?



Id say around 7000$ plus or minus, more likely plus thought



i don't know much of anything about sailboats, but for a 26 ft'r the cabins seem generously portioned...

I don't know much about sailboats either but I'll betcha this one is
either sold or in a landfill somewhere. The OP posted this on July 24,
1996

:-)


No antique value in a 42 year old boat?
