Default My close call

I see you didn't know the Bristol 50 after after all. What a toad.

Cheers

Bristol has built (and continues to build) a variety of custom boats, many of

Ah yes, but Jeff, you're not a pettifogging ****-ant like MC and JAX.

It's a matter of taste but I don't like center cockpit designs, most of them sail
like a double decker bus. However there are a few, Moody and Bristol come to mind,
that are good sailing boats. IIRC Bristols were designed by either Alden or Ted
Hood.
