Similarities between early Birstols and Tritons

Post by David »

Looking over the details fo Glissando's restoration I can't help the similarity in some aspects to my Bristol 29. For instance, the sliding companionway hatch looks identical even to the glassed in "stop" underneath at the aft edge. The cast aluminum spreader bases are identical as it the masthead. Makes me wonder about sharing resources between the two brothers as Bristols and Pearsons were being constructed.
