South Carolina | At the last Texel there where a few "exotic" 20-footers which could be considered affordable. There is the Czech built F20-Predator which goes for €25K ready to sail We were sailing behind one on friday and dont think I have seen a cat pitchpole that hard for a long time! http://www.f20predator.com/en/ There was also the Polish built Exploder which has been competing at Texel for a few years, not sure how much it costs but since their F18 goes for €11K it cant be as much as an M20 or similar. Considering that you can purchase an F18 in the states for around $15k (10.8k Euro), $35,000 (25k Euro) is not affordable.

| Any one you want; just not brand new. yes but we are comparing this to a "NEW" boat cost, aren't we? (40,000 CHD?? That's like $36,800USD!!!)

Atlanta, Ga | I think the Infusion price went up when the Tiger price went up. Somewhere in the ballpark of 18-22k..

+31NL | Did you guys see the new yacht of russian billionaire Abramovich? http://yachts.monacoeye.com/files/blohm_voss_eclipse.php Its value is estimated at around $500m! The recession doesnt seem to affect some people. ![[Linked Image]](http://yachts.monacoeye.com/files/blohm_voss_eclipse_01.jpg) As a bit of market research: How much would you pay for a 20 footer? And why would you want one? (Handicap racer?, line-honours winner?). | | | Re: Beaver 20HT

(Handicap racer?, line-honours winner?). just under $20k. I want one because I love sailing a 20' boat and it gives bigger teams an option.

| I've still never gotten a ride on a 20 footer, but I did have a chance to watch Team Loewen this weekend. They seem to have their ground school down pat and weren't struggling at all. We had one short encounter with them under spinnaker, and they were able to pull away without any effort. So, the strength of the bigger more powerful boat is beginning to sink in for me. Still, I wouldn't want to try to single hand one.

Clermont, FL, USA | I think the Infusion price went up when the Tiger price went up. Somewhere in the ballpark of 18-22k.. They may have gone up but I really don't think the Infusions are in that range. I got mine last year brand new for 15.5k and I've seen recent quotes at 17.5k (US). You can also get a lightly used Infusion for much less.
