Bristol 45.5
Deck detail, hull form, and a half century of cruising heritage, without the frame
The Bristol 45.5 is among the finest production cruising yachts ever built in America: a deep, seakindly hull paired with a beautifully resolved deck that rewards close inspection. Our half model presents both in hardwood at 1/12 scale, mounted clean against a hardwood backboard without a surrounding mahogany frame, letting the craftsmanship and the boat’s own lines do all the talking.
