A quick search on this forum provides the answer :

... then an M18 would be my next boat, however the price is looking at coming in at around 23500 Euro plus sails (last time I spoke to Goran Marstrom). Which is a lot of money, too much for me.

If "plus sails" means that you still have to buy these yourself then you must add 1500 Euro's for the mainsail and 750 Euro's for the spi, making a total of (hold on to your chairs everybody) 25.750 Euro's
As comparison :
Typical Bim XJ and AHPC Flyer A-cats are 18.500 Euro's
F16's (with a carbon mast) : 12.000 to 15.500 Euro's
A reasonably well equipped Hobie 16 "Le race" = about 13.000 Euro's
(all prices in this post are including European VAT (GST) taxes = about 18%)
