I have a feeling that re-powers are more expensive, but factory sweetheart deals for companies like Grady-White (and probably, certain brands of Genmar, though I don't know for sure), who only offer Yamaha, make initial purchases competitive. Once they develop brand loyalty, they'll stick it to you.... at least that is the conclusion I can too at re-power time. Maybe its just me, but had more trouble dealing with a Yamaha service rep (about five years ago) than I ever did with Merc or Bombadier. Totally turned me off of Yamaha it was that unpleasant.
