The Bristol 41.1 represents the pinnacle of the "second generation" of Bristol Yachts, a period where the builder transitioned from the narrow, Alberginspired fullkeelers of the 1960s toward the sophisticated, performanceoriented cruising designs of Ted Hood. Introduced in 1981 and remaining in production for over a decade, the 41.1 was designed to balance the contradictory requirements of shallowwater accessibility and bluewater stability. It achieved this through Hood’s signature "Stoway" mast systems and a versatile centerboard configuration. Constructed in Bristol, Rhode Island, the vessel earned a reputation as a "gentleman’s cruiser," characterized by its heavy handlaid fiberglass schedule, extensive use of structural bulkheads, and an interior finished with a level of joinery that rivaled more expensive European semicustom builds.
