Default Lots of cats for sale cheep.

I've noticed more cats for sale than usual. Is it the insurance issue? Fuel tank update? Bunches of 1075 motors in them. I was thinking about one for my next boat but I don't want to be the last guy to own it. I have seen boats sitting for sale for what seems like a long time. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong.
Comments???

Good economy ? I am not reaping the benefits of such a robust economony...but he is right there are alot of boat that have been forsale for years, and the catamarans just don't appear to be selling, I am on this site multiple time a day, everyday for the past 14 years, so I do notice.

For the current cat owners...

What is the insurance on say a stock merc power? Now this could be 500efi's to 1350's I know. But if some would like to share ballpark numbers of what they are paying it would be nice to know. There are some really good deals on cats and I have always been told they are difficult and expensive to insure.

Thanks

I think 1075s will be a nice peace in the future- they are a good platform, and the custom engine builders are doing a nice job with rebuilding and upgrading them.
