Tom Averna’s comment about the BCC was:
“Some boats retain a higher value
over the years, in some cases increasing
in value. A Bristol Channel Cutter
(BCC) comes to mind as a boat that
will hold it’s value longer than most 28’
boats of the same build year. They are
very well built boats, probably some of
the best built boats I’ve surveyed. But
there’s more to it than just being well
built. Boats like the BCC have a certain
mystique, thanks in part to the way
the marketing department
has developed the dream
of sailing over the horizon
on these salty little boats.
Bristol Chanel Cutters
do fluctuate in value
because some were owner
completed and some
were built by a company
in Canada. It all makes
a difference on what the
boats worth.”
