Marex 440 debut at Cannes

[roa312]

Aquaholic Nick put a price for the boat on his walkthrough video: just over a million…what are they thinking?
quite remarkable btw that for Aquaholic the boat is cleared of other visitors…

Nick mentions at the end of the video that the EUR 1m is full spec and not base price. Although I imagine that the shaft option will be more expensive compared to IPS. Personally I don't think the price is too bad when comparing to the competitors (the Azimut for instance).

I honestly don't know, but my guess would be that shafts would be cheaper. Yes, there are vee boxes to consider, but those IPS pods are bound to be ferociously expensive.

I really like these boats, I'm fairly certain I will own a few over the years to come (once they are a quarter of the new price!).

I'd like to know what sort of teak they have used onboard - as IMO it looks a bit dark. Perhaps its plantation.. and it clashes with the galley woodwork.

Has that ever happened with a decent quality boat - the price dropping to a quarter of what it was new? Possibly in 10 years compared to the then new price, but I can't see it compared to the original new price.

Not really, look at the view numbers!

I was thinking the same when I saw the video - I would also prefer slightly lighter woodwork. I was thinking it could look very good with white caulking instead of black but I don't know if that would be too difficult to maintain and clean over the years.
