Every Bristol 35.5 built in 1980 that we have observed since Apr 2022, cheapest first in today's prices. Derived facts only: no seller, no listing, month not day.
2 of 6 sit inside the likely range (hollow diamonds). Each boat is placed at its ask in today's prices and labelled with the price as asked and the month we saw it; a cut shows its size, and how long we have seen the boat listed so far. How we measure.
