Bristol 26 parts

[jayhawk226]

We bought a 1968 Bristol 26' last fall and just put her in the water. Having been covered all winter, we've discovered a few leaks topside. All are manageable, my forward hatch leaks like a sieve. Any ideas on where I might be able to locate one

Hay jayhawk I was just wondering how your 68 Bristol is working for you I bought a 1970 26 footer that I'm going to do a lot of work to just hulled it and found a a hole in the fiberglass 12 hrs @ $99 pr hr plus's $35 pr ft for paint now I have a sailboat I've found one site with a little info but not much if you could share any I would appricate it have you ever found a hull number ECT: thanks jesse

Hey Jesse,
Jayhawk only posted 1 time, 2 years ago. I doubt if we will be hearing from him.

Jess - I would press hard to learn repair skills. Those yard fees will make owning an old boat, well, somewhat disagreeable.

10-4 on the disagreeable yard fees I can't find a yard that will let owners do their own hull work no the Naples,Marco area that will hull a sailboat still in glad that parts done the rest is all me and possibly some good advise from my new sailnet friends i used to have a 1974 ericson 27 I worked at a marina and did my own work thanks thanks again for the good advice Jesse 26 Bristol sailstar
