The Bristol 30, introduced in the late 1960s, represents a significant stylistic pivot for Bristol Yachts. While the company's early success was built on the full-keel, traditional designs of Carl Alberg, the Bristol 30 was penned by Halsey Herreshoff, a member of the legendary American yachting dynasty. This model marked the transition toward more modern underwater profiles while maintaining the "overbuilt" construction philosophy that defined Clinton Pearson’s Rhode Island shipyard. Produced between 1968 and approximately 1978, the Bristol 30 was designed to offer a more spirited performance than its predecessor, the Bristol 27, while remaining a capable coastal cruiser.
