Not much difference over my list, the only difference is a flip flop of
CC/AF, and the inclusion of the ITP (which I haven't built yet, that and
perhaps a couple of the rafts are the only Pirate theme floating things
that I haven't built yet).

BSB is definitely better, additionally, from a gaming perspective, it
tends to be cheaper, and on top of that, parts are often available for
it (amongst those is the sails - yea!).

Definitely. Also, it's collapsing mast is not quite as cheesy as the
RBR's.
