[Public-list] Seafarer and Alberg Owners help identify this boat -link to photos

[Elaine and Brian Timmins]

Just guessing here, but how about a Bristol 27 Weekender? There is one from 
1969 on Yachtworld for comparison.
Regards,
Brian  ex#497
P.S. I was wrong on a previous post. It was designed by Alberg.
