Frequently asked questions
-
How much does a used cruising catamaran cost?
- Smaller cruising cats in the 35 to 40 foot range often sell from roughly 120,000 to 300,000 dollars, and larger or newer catamarans climb well into six and seven figures. Demand is strong and inventory tight, so well-kept cats hold value and sell quickly. Age, brand, and refit history drive the price.
-
What should I inspect on a used catamaran?
- Check both hulls and the bridgedeck for stress cracks and delamination, inspect the twin engines and saildrives, and examine the rig, sails, and daggerboards or keels. Look closely at the many systems (two of most things) and for water intrusion. A specialist multihull surveyor is well worth it given the boat's value and complexity.
-
What are the tradeoffs of a catamaran versus a monohull?
- Catamarans offer level, stable sailing, shallow draft, and huge living space, which is why they dominate the charter and cruising markets. The tradeoffs are higher purchase and dockage costs (they need a wider slip) and different handling in a seaway. For liveaboard comfort and stability at anchor, many cruisers find the cat worth it.
