Description
If you are looking for a shallow draft sailboat, easy to sail and with a pedigree which is not found in boats built nowadays, then Endurance a 1990 Bristol 43.3 may be the boat for you. One of the last 43.3’s built, this lovely Ted Hood design has always had exceptional care and has been continually upgraded to maintain her good looks and systems.
In 2021 her hull was Alexsealed by one of CT’s premier boatyards and at the same time her mast and boom were stripped and also Alexsealed Her hull is Stars and Stripes blue which is the perfect color to compliment Bristol’s extra high toe rails for which they were famous. A complete list of recent upgrades are in the full specs section of this listing. Whether you are leisurely day sailing and making use of the in mast furling main and bow thruster or heading out on a cruise and use the 8kw generator to power the two zone air conditioning, Endurance is a boat that can do both, easily managed by a couple, yet brawny enough for when the going gets tough.

Tom was the one of the service managers at Yacht Haven in Stamford, Connecticut from 1979 -1994. Since Tom was always sending customers to Prestige Yacht Sales, he thought he should try the brokerage business. That was eighteen years ago, Tom has since become owner of Prestige Yacht Sales. Prestige Yacht Sales has grown from one office in Stamford with three brokers, to three offices in Norwalk, Essex and Mystic with seven full time brokers! "After working in the boatyard for so many years, I never thought of myself as a sales person. To this day I think of myself as a customer service guy that happens to know and love boats. Hey, where else can I work and bring my Springer Spaniel, Wesley with me every day? I think most of my customers actually come to see him not me!"
