Buzzards Bay 34 pricing
Rupert, I didn't realize I had to explain a simple analogy to someone, so
obviously you didn't get the message or you're just argumentative.
For two similar things to be compared they must be compared in the same
socio-economic areas....apples with apples, oranges with oranges, get it.

Graham's analogy does not always stand up. For instance, if the smaller
condo is in Monte Carlo and the larger one in Liverpool (or, name your place
in an area near you), like hell does it stand up!

We all know you have to pay more for the larger condo because you
know you're going
to get more for your money and you certainly do get more in a power
catamaran.

Graham,
Thank you for your "explanation. I am fairly well-versed in forms of
argumentative logic, fallacies, rhetoric, and honest and dishonest
forms of argumentation, (at least enough for my own interest and
enjoyment), ergo, I don't think I need to explain my comments
further. You have made your points; I have made mine. I am content
with that.
Cheers,
rupert.

I'm not sure what the issue is here, but a quick comment about the real estate analogy. Here in California when you get your property tax bill there are two numbers, the Land value and the value of the "Improvements". The improvements, generally the building, is a depreciating asset and other than regional differences in labor and materials costs would be similar in many locales. The Land value is the one that varies widely based on supply and demand. Here in coastal California the land can be 80-90% of the value, in a rural district in the interior it would be 10-20% of the value. Since a boat has no land, location has less of an effect. But the effect is non zero due to the difficulty in relocating large boats long distances.
