Cape Horn Boats Review

The Cape Horn Boats Company, based in Florida since 1988, builds six models of boats and limits their annual output to 250 boats. They develop their models in-house and specialize in making craft that cater to the special needs of the fisherman. Finished boats are loaded on factory supplied trailers for delivery straight to the dealer.

The Cape Horn Boats Company’s motto is “None Built Stronger,” and they implement this motto by using solid fiberglass and composite materials that contain no wood, all stainless steel hardware, and non-metallic fuel tanks in all their boats. They claim that their boats are unsinkable and self-bailing, and their boats have an excellent reputation for safety.

Pricing

New Cape Horn boats can range from $70,000 to $220,000, depending on the model. Used models fall into the range of $20,000 to $60,000, with significantly older models selling for much less.
