Dieter Empacher lead navel architect at the Hood Design Group designed a powerful and high-volume hull form with heavy weather prowess. The Bristol 56.6 is regarded as a masterclass in American yacht design and construction. The versatile lead keel/centerboard configuration allows for shallow-water cruising without sacrificing up wind performance. The displacement-to-length ratio places it firmly in the "heavy cruiser" category. Underway the vessel exhibits a predictable, soft-motion hull that excels in offshore. A go anywhere cutter rigged cruiser that can be handled with minimal crew. The timelessly stylish lines, overbuilt fiberglass layup and world-class interior joinery make the Bristol 56.6 an exceptional vessel for the discriminating Yachtsman.
