Alumacraft Escape 145 CS keeps an estimated 77% of its value after 5 years — #631 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Alumacraft Escape 145 CS retains an estimated 77% of its value after five years, ranking #631 of 5780 boats we track. That is 6 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 Escape 145 CS sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $8,365 it falls to around $6,407 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,958, about $1.07 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Alumacraft Escape 145 CS bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
