Carolina Skiff 162 JLS CC keeps an estimated 56% of its value after 5 years — #5535 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Carolina Skiff 162 JLS CC retains an estimated 56% of its value after five years, ranking #5535 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 15 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Carolina Skiff 162 JLS CC sheds about 22% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $23,140 it falls to around $12,842 by year five — a five-year loss near $10,298, about $5.64 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Carolina Skiff 162 JLS CC bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
