MACH 22 WITH TWINS??? YOU BETTER HAVE SOME HOURS BEHIND THE SEAT AND A FAT WALLET FOR INSURANCE PREMIUMS.
BUT IF YOUR GETTING A CAT OVER 25 FT. GO FOR IT.

When I was looking at the used Mach 22's with twins with purchase price around 60K, I was getting quotes in the neighborhood of 1,500-1,900 yr. range. I figured it was not going to be much different with a 26...it only goes down if it is a V. The insurance on my 26 cat is around 2100yr, and the insurance on our 23 Eliminator Eagle is around $600. It just sucks that you can buy two boats same horsepower, but the cat is going to 3 times as much...the cat feels more safe at 80 than the Eagle does at 50...I guess no one ever said boating was a fair sport.
AFTER SOME RECENT ACCIDENTS WITH CATS PROGRESSIVE, ALONG WITH SOME OTHER INSURANCE COMPANIES, DID SOME STUDIES OF ACCIDENTS WITH CATS. IF YOU GET A DCB WITH TWINS I HEAR THE INSURANCE PREMIUM IS IN THE HIGH 2'S.
BMW FINANCE MANAGER. YOU HAVE TO BE PULLING DOWN $200K A YEAR EASY. DROP IN THE BUCKET.
I SEE SO MANY MACH 22'S WITH TWINS FOR SALE. I THINK YOU WILL BE MUCH BETTER OFF WITH ONE 300X. YOU SHOULD RUN IN THE HIGH 90'S. THESE BOATS LOVE TO DO THE LONG JUMP IN ABOUT 2 FOOT CHOP. SCARY AT 115.
Just for the record the 115 is where it's at. My 21 dcb with twins that I just sold was only 900 a year with overkill on the coverage. My new 25 with twin 300 is only 1400, same overkill coverage. It's all about life over 100MPH. P.S. One thing I will say that 22 with a single 300X will run much better in the Chop than the one with twins, and be much more user friendly. Can't wait to see it at Shasta next summer good luck with the color pick.
