Dieter Empacher, lead naval 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 upwind performance. Underway the vessel exhibits a predictable, soft-motion hull that excels 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.
