After a post-pandemic boom, the market levelled out in 2026. For some, it is no longer a matter of if, but when.
The decision to change one’s life, to bargain with possibilities, to own a catamaran, is for some no longer a matter of "if", but "when". Many of us are looking for a change of pace in an unpredictable socio-economic landscape, weighing up the cost of a more independent and grounded way of life.
Work-from-anywhere takes on new meaning aboard a catamaran. Approximately 330 million people work remotely as of 2026, a number projected to grow by 25% by 2030. For many, sailing island-to-island is no longer a retirement dream but a six-months-from-now dream. With reliable connectivity systems and a built-in workspace, working from a seafaring mobile home is well catered for.
For US buyers in particular, import tariffs saw a substantial increase last year, with speculation of selective further increases. After a post-pandemic boom in prices, the market levelled out in 2026 — which makes this the best time to invest in a catamaran in years.
