    Cheaper in the US by far, I would say. Supply and demand.

    IIRC, if you buy a Mexican registered boat, your captain has to be approved by the local port master = exam in Spanish.

    FM2/3 holders can have a foreign registered boat, and don't have as many restrictions.

    In some places, yachts = sailboats.

    Oh but don't forget, you can always offset the great expense of your boat by smuggling Cubans (it's one of the more popular illegal activities in Cancun dontchaknow).
