While I respect Jeff''s opinion I would caution that as with most issues a general statement may not apply across the board. I think you will find that as is the case with monohulls well engineered, quality built boats will hold their values well over time and will benefit from the supply and demand factor. While the catamaran industry is comparatively young relative to the monohull world there are nevertheless numerous "old" cats holding their seaworthiness and value quite nicely.
