If you are seeking a classic cruising sailboat in this size and price range, you will have a tough time finding one as gorgeous, well-maintained and upgraded as Whistler. This 1981 Bristol 40 keel/centerboard sloop is hull 130 of 149 built, and she benefits from years of continuous attention. The Bristol 40 is a well-regarded Ted Hood design, and is a carefully planned, well-constructed and sturdily built vessel that can take you anywhere in classic style. The Cruising Club of America declared the Bristol 40 to be one of the best monohull cruising vessels of all time. This boat is the perfect coastal cruiser for a couple. Notable features and upgrades include:

  • New sails and running rigging
  • Newer Raymarine electronics with radar
  • Installed cabin plug-in water-cooled heat/AC system
  • Electric head with freshwater flush
  • Centerboard keel: draft 4’ board up or 7’ 10” board down

Whistler is under winter cover now, but will be commissioned for the season and launched soon. See full listing and call broker for even more details!
