Many people talk about this price drop on sailboat. I don't see it. I see overprice undesirable boat having price drop so it will sell but no real deal. Catamaran market is still very hot. All I see are very old money pit CAT that nobody wants. By the time you fix up your budget catamaran that is sea going (occasional ocean crossing), you are at $300K US. And then, you need to maintain it. Once the interest rate goes up maybe, we will see a real price drop.

Hey Buddy, greetings again from Australia… I’ve been building and sailing catamarans for over 40 years and believe me there are two things that are REAL… 1- there are NO budget catamarans, 2- ALL cats will have bridgedeck slap, yes some more than others as they are lower, but there are no cats that will not slap at some stage and scare the sh1t out of the crew ….. I’m presently refitting my 45’cat to sell and move over to a mono as I cannot afford at my age to be spending what it takes to keep it .. my bank account at my age does not warrant it… I’m spending approx $125k on this major refit on a 35year old solid and exceptionally seaworthy craft … happy to pass on any info if required… keep up the good work …

Catamaran are freaking awesome! I like how the resist the waves and they are stable when sailing they have room to walk on bigger rooms, bathrooms, they just make sense. When your sailing you want to go slow and relax, no rush.

Happy to have this info. Seriously thinking of becoming a liveaboard and I've been watching lots of sailing videos, etc. trying to determine what would be best. There's so much to consider. Given that I'll have pets with me, I have decided -- for now, at least -- for their comfort while traveling, that a cat or trawler would be best. However, not wanting to be a fuel slave, that left catamaran. I was beginning to feel discouraged, though, that I would be able to find an appropriate boat, that I would like not just settle for, in my price range. I am somewhat encouraged by this video, but still questions left to be answered! I'm also a single, senior female and will have to single hand whatever it is. The quest continues!

Mono will be easier to solo, get a mono with a walk through transom for the pets, dual helm for space and a length at the water line close to the length overall, youl be able to get a newer mlre roomy vessel that way than if thinking a catamaran

It’s always my favorite. “I’ve tried both an cats are better. Definitely go trade your monohull for a cat.” Ah, what you mean is go trade your monohull for about a 1/5 share of a cat? Or your 58 foot monohull for a hobie cat?

Other than the Lagoon 38 none of those boat have any nice interior space. Deck space sure. The Genini's are equivalent to a pop-up camper and not even that comfortable. At those sizes you are probably much better off in a 40 foot mono hull for less money. Just my opinion but even if I had the money I wouldn't be buying a cat. Just doesn't make financial sense. Plus I don't like sailing by numbers which is what sailing a cruising cat is. There is little if any "feel" when sailing a cruising cat unlike a mono hull. But like Chris said, if a cat is your thing more power to you.

@jasongarry8222 2 жыл бұрын

A good way to buy a reasonably priced cat would be a well built or importantly surveyed, Grainger, Woods or another well designed lesser known catamaran. I've seen some for under 100k mostly because of the space below or people just don't know about them.

Depends on what you think will be a good budget for ya. Once you jave a budget I would compare cats in that range vs mono, you can always get a larger mono for the same money

I'd just be scared to flip a cat. with a monohull that's not really an issue.

@indecent2486 2 жыл бұрын

Basically very few cruising cats have been flipped in 40 years.. yes it can happen and you’d have the biggest floating life raft if it did…. BUT you probably have the same chance of being hit by lightening. Racing cats flip .. yes .. on the edge and overpowered or broaching in massive seas .. but sail respectfully and reef early… you have about the same chance of winning lotto than flipping a cruising cat …

@jasongarry8222 2 жыл бұрын

The captain is the most important safety device and most modern ie charter cats would have mast failure before flipping. That's only a real possibility for a high performance cat and more importantly floating on top of the water is always better than sinking. I'll take redundancy and positive displacement
