Traditional Design,Classic Lines, Quality Construction and Bristol Condition. That pretty much sums up "Pumpkin". This 1978 boat has been repainted top and bottom, as well as having new canvas. The entire interior has been revarnished and reupholstered. Halsey C. Herreshoff designed the Bristol line with a waterline that is long in relation to over-all length. The lead ballast is positioned for low center of gravity and good sail-carrying ability. The aft rudder, with fixed skeg, provides positive steering control and assures exceptional directional stability. Pumpkin has a traditional layout with berths for 6, a true chart table, spacious cockpit and the warmth of wood through out. Her modern conveniences include refrigeration, hot and cold pressure water, shower, wheel steering, Furlex roller furling and halyards led aft to the cockpit. This is an easily handled boat that can be single-handed quite easily. Pumpkin belies her age thanks to a fastidious owner who has had her upgraded and generally pampered. Boats of this design are known for their gentle sailing characteristics and good turn of speed. The entire Bristol line of boats is known for superb craftsmanship, quality workmanship and top of the line hardware.
