27' bristol

Kiji is a Carl Alberg design Bristol 27, Hull # 100. Im selling to acquire a larger boat to accommodate my growing family of four. Realistically, for overnight outings, Kiji is a one or two person boat.
The build quality and traditional design is outstanding. She is blue water capable. The highlight of the boat is the traditional hull form and construction; heavy glass build, proper ballast, eased forefoot full keel with keel hung ruder. She is an excellent performer. To learn more; there is plenty of information on the web
Kiji was designed with an enclosed outboard lazarette. The outboard hull cutaway in the lazarette has been sealed A stern mounted outboard bracket was installed in 2014 to increase storage and allow the engine to tilt fully out of the water when sailing and when moored. An upgraded heaver bracket was installed in 2023 to properly accommodate the 2015 6 HP Tohatsu outboard engine, which has very low hours.
The rudder was professionally replaced in 2014. The rudder was originally wood. This item has been remedied using modern materials and techniques.
The mainsail has been maintained and is in good condition. The main has two reefs and the first reef has been belted reef clew to reef tack. She has three head sails: a 150% Genoa in good condition, a new multipurpose 135% AP Genoa which has a reef, and a 70% Spitfire storm jib to compliment the second reef in the main. Foresails are hank-on. She is designed to carry a masthead Spinnaker. However there is no spinnaker or pole with the boat but she has a whisker pole sized for the 150% genoa. KIJI also has a custom dodger with a roll-up forward window.
In April of 2023 all topside bright work was redone. The Navy blue hull was polished, boot stripe repainted in white. Bottom paint is red and one season old.
This boat is in great shape and ready for sea. She is old school classic plastic in every way, design, build and form, and very manageable in operation and cost of ownership.
