An unlisted classic sailboat for sale for $39k!! This one's a beauty!! EP 6

[@petec9686]

This thing wins the "on the hard" beauty contest of every boat you've reviewed. That rear overhang and full keel are just sexy as hell. She's no slouch up top either. What a work of art.

[@Bhall912e]

Love the CCA boats of this era with their beautiful overhangs..... I was lucky enough to find one and purchase it last year. Every time I leave the Marina I catch myself looking back at her.... Not too many things in life are able to do that.....

[@davidhutchinson5233]

Captain Q is colorful in all the right ways. Thanks to both of you Captain and Randy.

Thank you so much!! We’re having a great time and our boat list is long so stay tuned!!

[@philh3178]

I’ve watched 4 today too! Really well done series, kind of combines “my classic boat” out of the UK with the car based “Barn Find Hunter”, two of my other favourites. The only thing I don’t get is the scoring system. All the boats have been 10 out of 10, then get bumped up to 13 or 15 out of 10? Please splain! And keep up the great work

[@YachtHunters]

Awesome! Thank you!

hahahaha totally random but all boats that can float rate a ten in my boat i love them all anything over that is a reflection of the amount of adrenalin that gets pumped in when i go aboard and loose my fantasies ...random fun

[@markc3717]

Isn’t it a great thing that the designers met the rules but still produced these things of beauty - what a great result wether intended or not - “they are the vessels of our dreams” (borrowed quotation) And yes heeling over can be a challenge or it can just be part of sailing ... maybe a little like getting your sea legs.

[@YachtHunters]

sea legs take some people an hour others days but that Bristol is really terrific and there's something rewarding about the older narrower boats taking that early heel and then driving

[@searscr1]

Love the Red Green suspenders.

[@YachtHunters]

[@searscr1]

@@YachtHunters I was thinking more along the lines of the Red Green Show. The lead character Red wore the same suspenders.

[@mozartbradway1501]

This is my favorite boat so far. I really enjoy your videos❣️

[@smyers8535]

Nice tour Cap, and a perfect example of why upkeep is more important than age when it comes to old yachts. If kept up, that solid glass hull will last virtually forever. A Bristol may not carry the marquee of Hinckley, but is every bit as nice. Price appears very fair for condition. Only real thing I would change is to swap out the cockpit propane tanks for a smaller one, and have it lashed to the aft stanchion with a smart canvass cover.

[@michaelowen6144]

Good morning captain. I'd like to see you look at more of the systems on the boat and less of the nooks and crannies of the interior. Plumbing, engine, electrical, sails and sail controls, they all make a difference in the prices you well know.

[@kipwilliam5593]

I shall say this industry seems to ignore security aspects & watertight compartments. Living years in Nanaimo we have crime & also winter weather that can ruin a boat. If I bought a sail boat for ocean travel I would want everything enclosed

[@jonnorousseau3096]

I just knew that was a Bristol the second I saw her, beautiful boat, not for me, Bermudan ketch with an inner stay is more to my liking, for some reason I just don't like yawls. Still a very pretty boat, narrow and small inside no doubt.

[@YachtHunters]

she might surprise you but i am an old yawl man so that part works for me great price for negotiation i'm sure and in good condition

[@PeterCombs]

the gelcoats on these were very prone to fading but easy to buff out.

[@belajarus]

Indeed, stopped on the side of the road as well to see this beauty, its at a small boatyard between Newcastle and Rye NH. Very interesting to hear what you have to say about it Captain Q,

[@YachtHunters]

[@rustylove5035]

Hi Mr Randay? Are still happy you got your sailboat would like to know Thanks RUSTY and keep taking care of Mr Q

[@YachtHunters]

absolutely.... the initial purchase and getting familiar with the boat were a bit stressful but with each passing week, I gained more confidence in understanding the things that need to be dealt with. Now, it's just a lot of fun to make it better, think about other ways to improve it over time.... and getting to sail in between. Cheers!

[@OgamiItto70]

It's a real shame I'm not rich right now, because if I had the cash I would buy this boat today. (Assuming no one else has gotten it before now.) And I would sail it anywhere on the entire planet that there's sufficient water to clear its draft. Maybe singlehanded.

[@YachtHunters]

We just drove by her the other day and she’s still on the hard and for sale… life is short!!

[@tnmtemerity]

Is Captain Q going to do a suspender tutorial sometime? That’s some interesting sartorial stuff going on there.

[@YachtHunters]

aha glad you asked given my girth i have discovered for sometime that Braces are really necessary for sartorial comfort. But i did find that the typical meatal fittings can be deleterious to marine finishes especially varnished bulkheads so i cut them off and substituted some 3/16 nylon line and with a few random square knots created a much more suitable means of keeping my Nantucket reds up and i cannot damage one sliver of gleaming brightwork no matter what..i recommend the approach for this highly adjustable approach. side story : i had a pair of port and starboard braces tha t i wore out years ago, so i found a purveyor on line and ordered another pair ...but it turns out the pair i ordered were designed for a Canadian comedy tv show character so they came in back words . so i have had to flip them over the keen eye will spot the adjusting brasses are upside down thank you for your concern and i hope this explains

[@tnmtemerity]

@@YachtHunters, actually I thought it was rather ingenious and unique. I’m a fan of suspenders myself, just never saw them attached like that. It’s a good way to show your rope skills as well.

[@rickstevens1479]

Maya from Magic carpet gave the Capt a shout out last wk...

[@YachtHunters]

Yes we saw that and dropped them a note.... such a well-done channel... big fans here... 😀

[@susanc.8009]

Two comments in first few minutes from a 1971 Bristol 40 owner-A boat this old with a shiny hull is most definitely spray painted and it cost big bucks. And please, never wax a boat because it will need to be painted eventually and the wax makes paint not adhere as well as it could. Save money and paint your hull yourself. You won’t be so heart sick when it gets scratched-and it will.

[@sheddski2942]

I checked this boat out in Portsmouth nh and that’s not original gelcoat it was white originally there is bubbles under the imron paint near the waterline where the boot stripe meets the green hull hopefully it’s just the paint not osmosis in gelcoat

[@Morrisfactor]

These old designs with the long overhangs sail more on their sides than upright, which gets tiring on a long trips - plus the extremely short waterlines mean small interiors. (The interior of this 39 boat is about the same as a more modern 32 footer). Designs that ignore the CCA and IRA rules are much more comfortable to sail and live aboard. Compare a Westsail 39 to this boat and you'll see what I mean.

[@petec9686]

I would build a teak driver's seat over those LPG tanks.

[@YachtHunters]

[@TheHerakin]

What is the path forward for foreigners to buy one of your magnificent boats ? What percentage does the attorney take when a foreign client buys a boat. Thank you.

[@YachtHunters]

I would reach out to the broker for the boat on that one. The contact information is in the description above. Cheers!

Generally don't use attorneys to purchase. Can use a title company to ensure there are no lines.

What a contrast to almost all yacht broker videos. They're silent as they go through the boat, all you can hear is them breathing, and it's really creepy! And my guess as to why they remain silent through the whole tour is...they have no idea what they're looking at. But they still get 10% of the sale. Totally pathetic. They could all learn a lesson from your videos!

[@inixio11]

If you start watching Captain Q you cannot not watch anyone else anymore. Agreed.

[@mboyer68]

@@inixio11 I rip other yacht brokers apart in the comments section. I write things like "maybe you could spend 45 minutes learning video editing, or maybe learn something about sailboats so you can say intelligent things during the walk through" etc... They're pathetic, they don't deserve 10% of the sale, they deserve maybe $50 for posting a video.

[@YachtHunters]

there are some very good and very necessary brokers in the industry but like all businesses there are a few that give it a bad name. I have had the same one available to me for 36 years (Chet Hartshorn with Wellington Yachts in Newport Ri) but We are not brokers and do not charge sellers or agents for our costs but i am very fortunate to have been teamed up withone of my old racing crew Ran-Day the"Viper" as we call him He is a genius at editing and producing ..I'm just the old diva that he makes look good anyway enjoy and thankyou.
