The CRAZY AMOUNT We Spent On Factory Options For Our Brand New Yacht!

In this week’s video, we’re answering the question we get asked the most: "How much did your new boat actually cost?" When we first started looking for a yacht, we had no idea how quickly the so-called “base price” of a new boat could spiral into something very different once you start adding the options you actually need to sail and live comfortably. So we’re breaking down all the optional extras we chose from the spec sheet of our Excess 11 catamaran. From the essential upgrades to the little luxuries, we’ll share exactly what each option cost, and at the end of the video, we'll reveal the total price of our yacht from the factory! If you’re thinking about buying a catamaran (or any yacht), this video will give you a real insight into what that “list price” really means, how much extra you need to budget, and the compromises every boat buyer faces. Join us on board Rúna as we crunch the numbers 🤓 And let us know in the comments if you've bought a new boat before, what was the most useful thing you specced👇🏼 Hey! We’re Ruth and Andrew 👋🏼 Earlier this year, after years of dreaming, we left our family, friends and lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, behind as we set off to chase our shared dream of sailing the world. In April, we bought our 11m catamaran, Rúna, which we now call home as we live, work, sail and adventure full-time.
