Weak competition in the 40-foot fly outboard market
From the point of view of the competition, few similar models are offered in outboard version, inboard propulsion being the predominant choice of shipyards for this type of unit. Bénéteau, which belongs to the same group as Jeanneau, offers the Antares 12 with its 12.97 m length, it features a similar configuration. Standard as a double outboard, it also has the same engine power of 900 hp as an option. The base price for the Antares 12 is ?505,560 (incl. VAT) bareboat. Adding the three outboards and several options, the price could be slightly higher than that of the Merry Fisher 1295 Fly.
The American brand Regal Boats also offers a similar model with the Regal 42 FXO 12.85 m, with more powerful 3x425 Yahama XTO engines. Inside, there are just two cabins, but the deck and fly configuration are equivalent. The price, however, is well above that of the Merry Fisher 1295 Fly, at over ?700,000.
Finally, the Polish Parker can be compared with the Monaco 110 Flybridge smaller. The model has an overall length of 11.70 m and is powered by a 2x350 hp twin outboard engine. The price here is lower than that of our test model, at around ?310,000 for a new model equipped with 2x300 hp Suzuki.
