The Bristol Yachts 40 is a 12.2-meter masthead sloop designed by Ted Hood and built by Bristol Yachts from 1970 to 1986, with 149 hulls produced. This modified full keel cruiser, nearly identical to the earlier Bristol 39, features a solid fiberglass hull and an encapsulated lead keel. Designed to the Cruising Club of America (CCA) rulebook, the Bristol 40 has long overhangs and a narrow 3.3-meter beam, causing it to heel quickly and require early reefing.4:05 Its 7974 kg displacement and 1.6-meter draft contribute to a stable, sea-kindly motion offshore, though its positive riding moment is lower than modern wide-body cruisers.6:41 Owners should expect maintenance common to 40- to 50-year-old vessels, including potential deck-core moisture, chainplate fatigue, and aging electrical or plumbing systems.5:46 The interior volume is modest, and the aperture-mounted propeller can make close-quarters maneuvering challenging.8:11 The model was available as a cutter or yawl, with a Westerbeke Diesel as an option.8:30
