On Offer

 

 

If you're reading this it's safe to assume you either have or want a BCC. For most of us the want cannot be translated to the have because of the cost. But here is a living, working BCC at a really affordable price.

 

MANDY has been lovingly cared for as well as thoroughly used for what she was designed for ... long distance cruising.

 

Number 32 of the 127 exquisitely designed and built BCC's, MANDY has had just three owners and has provided a home for each. Her interior is clad in beautiful raw timber, gleaned from a farm house far older than her.

 

Complete maintenance and trip logs are available along with documentation of almost every facet of MANDY's life.

 

Most recently she has been repowered, wired, plumbed and improved to take her proud owners from Southern California, through the Panama Canal to Columbia, the Central Caribbean and on to the East Coast of the U.S.

 

With her new engine, new solar panels, new electrics and batteries, new water tanks, new refrigerator, new Raymarine Chart plotter and radar and new Lyle Hess designed Montgomery 7' 11' hard dinghy she has truly fit the Pardey mantra of 'make your boat unstoppable'.

 

Where others have spent time looking for parts and mechanics Mandy has been on to the horizon.

 

 

Specifications

 

 

Hull and Deck «

 

The hull, surely one of the most beautiful and efficient ones ever to grace the sea, is hand laminated using 7 ½ oz. cloth, 1 ½ oz. mat and 24 oz. woven roving solid glass – no core material. The roving build up is increased below water line, in the bow, on the transom and in the area of the chainplates. The deck is ply core sandwich to provide stiffness. Eight inch high bulwarks provide real security and the wide side decks are like Park Avenue when compared to many larger craft.
