A Catamaran costs more than a monohull of the same size. After a boat is purchased, further running and upkeep costs apply (i.e., cost of ownership). For instance, due to a catamaran's two engines, fuel costs quickly mount up after the purchase, and the buyer will have to pay extra for a larger, more extensive marina slip. The inability of catamaran boats to "self-right" themselves in the unlikely case of capsizing is another frequently cited drawback of catamaran cruising. Monohull sailboats are designed to "correct" themselves if they tip over in a storm's high-volume waves. By definition, catamarans are unable to do this.
Demand for the Catamarans Market is being driven by technological improvements and an increase in the use of catamaran for luxury and leisure applications. Unfortunately, catamarans have two engines and two rudders, which increases costs and has a detrimental effect on the growth of Catamarans Market. The demand for catamarans is also rising because to increased travel and tourism, booming leisure activities, and booming adoption of sailing, cruising, water sports, and campaigning.
