Boston Whaler 240 DL keeps an estimated 69% of its value after 5 years — #2148 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Boston Whaler 240 DL retains an estimated 69% of its value after five years, ranking #2148 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 2 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Boston Whaler 240 DL sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $137,609 it falls to around $117,317 by year five — a five-year loss near $20,292, about $11.12 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Boston Whaler 240 DL bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
