Sloop Archipelago

Archipelago is a clean, well equipped and maintained example of Ted Hood's Bristol 38.8.

The design of the 38.8 was so well thought of that the Bristol 3800, Wauquiez Hood 38 and the Little Harbor 38 are all based on this same hull design.

With a Keel / Centerboard, her draft can go from 4.5' to 10.3' with her board down.

Archipelago is what Bristol called the "Aft Cabin" version, however, she has the V-Berth of the Standard version. Her interior woodwork is in extremely good condition. Her cushions were custom made and they're a tasteful shade of green that goes perfectly with her beautiful cabinetry. It's also a nice departure from the "traditional" blue.

The 38.8 also has one of Ted Hood's best Head layouts for a boat of this size... It's Huge.

The Bristol 38.8 has retained it's value as a result of superior build quality, solid reputation and a devoted owner base.

Archipelago is VERY solid, fully equipped, with a beautiful interior and ready to go...

Client Testimonials

«When things weren't working out with my previous Yacht Broker, a friend of mine suggested that I contact Yacht Access to sell my Sea Ray. I contacted Dan Paolillo at Yacht Access and there was absolutely no pressure. After our initial conversation Dan followed up with a list of comparable vessels recently sold and a list of similar vessels currently available with asking prices. After looking over the information we decided on an asking price and within 90 days Dan had my yacht under contract. Two weeks later it was sold. Since then we've kept in close touch and will hopefully be closing on my next vessel soon. After no success selling my 48' Sea Ray Sedan Bridge with my previous broker, calling Yacht Access was the best decision I ever made. I would encourage anyone looking to buy or sell to contact these professionals.»
