Is this The ULTIMATE Sailboat Barn Find? Join us on an exhilarating journey as we uncover what might just be the ultimate sailboat barn find!
UPDATE 03/02/2025: The PRICE has dropped on this beauty from $35,000 down to $15,000! Somebody save this beauty!
UPDATED INFORMATION AS OF 05/15/2024: So, new information is emerging about this Bristol. She was custom finished by Chester Crosby at the Crosby Yacht Yard in Osterville, MA, circa 1980. Crosby Yacht Yard has been building boats since 1850 and the yard is still going strong to this day. So, we believe she was built as she is now - lots of teak and custom woodwork. Thank you Ben Ellison for your sleuthing.
THIS VIDEO IS THE BIG REVEAL OF THIS BOAT. SHE HAS NOT BEEN ON THE MARKET UNTIL NOW.
Canadian Ken and I stumbled upon this hidden beauty two weeks ago, and what a discovery it was. Despite its stunning exterior, this sailboat holds mysteries and potential that we're eager to explore.
In this video, we delve into the allure of this Bristol 40 yawl, revealing both its captivating features and the work it needs to shine once again. From its promising Westerbeke diesel to the unfinished projects left by its previous owner, there's no shortage of excitement as we assess its condition.
But fear not, fellow sailors! With a little TLC and DIY expertise, this barn find has the potential to become a true maritime treasure. Join us as we discuss the necessary improvements, from varnishing to addressing bulkhead issues, and envision the adventures that await aboard this classic vessel.
Plus, don't miss out on exclusive insights into the asking price and market value of this Bristol 40. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SHE HAS BEEN ON THE MARKET AND AND SHE HAS NOT BEEN ON THE WATER FOR MORE THAN FIVE YEARS! With its potential to fetch well above its current listing, this sailboat represents not just a restoration project, but an investment in seafaring elegance.
So, are you ready to embark on this thrilling journey with us? Hit that play button and let's explore whether this sailboat barn find could indeed be the belle of the ball, waiting to charm its next captain with timeless style and adventure.
