Here's my two cents...
For the same money, you might want to consider going for a high-end deep-V like a Grady White, Sea Ox, Boston Whaler, Wellcraft, etc... with dual outboards. I suggest this because with the twin hull boats you lose the prime reason to spend the extra $$ for twin engines which is the reliabilty & safety factor. The CAT hulls do not function on a single engine should one engine fail.
Why spend all that money and still not have the piece of mind that you should come with the extra $$ ? Having twin engines should be a luxury, not a necessity.
If you want to be convinced, go to a dealer that sells catamaran hulls and ask them to show you how the boat performs on just one engine. They are like a helicopter with no tail. Then test a deep V hull with one engine running.
