The Bristol 35.5C is a
high quality, solidly built boat that has withstood the test of time.
Designed by Ted Hood and built by Bristol Yachts in Bristol Rhode
Island, Extravagance is an outstanding example of a centerboard cruising
boat. Hood knew more about designing centerboard cruising boats than
anyone and he designed a winner in the 35.5C, saying "This one just
turned out great. She goes right along, doesn't she!" He even owned one
himself.
Extravagance is one of the few that have been properly
cared for throughout her life. In the last year alone upgrades include
new standing rigging, new running rigging, centerboard servicing and a
full bottom job. Extravagance is truly a beautiful boat that is turn-key
and ready to sail today.
With her centerboard up she draws just 3 feet 9 inches. Couple that
with her excellent light to moderate air performance and the 35.5C is a
clear choice for the Chesapeake, and with her reputation as a sea kindly
boat, she can take you well beyond. One owner reported "On a broad
reach in 35-knot winds, big seas, sailing under the genoa reefed down to
~90 percent, I was amazed to find the motion relatively smooth, like a
train on a track." Another said "I have experienced motor sailing into
5- to 8-foot swells, alongside a friend's boat ... the other boat
pounded so hard they slowed down to avoid damaging the very well-built
boat. Our Bristol sliced through the waves, without pounding,
maintaining our usual speed and comfort."
Purchased at the
Annapolis boat show in 1980 just 6 months after her commissioning,
Extravagance's original owner meticulously maintained her and her
current owner has followed in his footsteps. This yacht is clean, neat
and shows extremely well. She is in better shape than many boats 1/3 her
age and is one of the finest 35.5C's on the market today. Seeing is
believing, don't miss the virtual tour, video tour and slideshow links
