1998 Bristol Channel Cutter 28

Arichat, Nova Scotia, Canada

US$75,000

Lyle Hess got it absolutely right when he designed the BCC 28 for Sam L. Morse to build out of the new boat building material, fiberglass. Lyle's genius is evident from the 127 BBCs built at the Sam L. Morse Co. between 1976 and 2008.

The BCC was featured in Ferenc Mate's first Volume of "The Best Boats to Buy or Build and in his two later volumes of "The World's Best Sailboats".

This boat is an amazing small and capable voyager with a cult group of passionate owners, many of whom are now scattered around the world.

Beautifully maintained and upgraded by a fussy owner. See full specs for complete details.
