Alumacraft Competitor 185 Tiller keeps an estimated 75% of its value after 5 years — #838 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Alumacraft Competitor 185 Tiller retains an estimated 75% of its value after five years, ranking #838 of 5780 boats we track. That is 5 points above the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Alumacraft Competitor 185 Tiller sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $21,472 it falls to around $16,168 by year five — a five-year loss near $5,304, about $2.91 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Alumacraft Competitor 185 Tiller bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
