The Bristol 43.3 represents a highwater mark for the Bristol Yacht Company, emerging during the late 1980s as a refined evolution of Ted Hood’s "Design 114." Built in the Rhode Island yard under the direction of Clint Pearson, this model was part of a series of larger, semicustom yachts that included the 41.1, 45.5, and 47.7. The 43.3 specifically offered a balance of offshore capability and luxury that targeted the premium cruising market of the era. Constructed with a heavydisplacement hull and a versatile keelcenterboard configuration, it was designed to provide the stability required for bluewater passages while maintaining the ability to navigate the shallow gunkholes of the Chesapeake Bay or the Bahamas.
