Century 30 Express keeps an estimated 69% of its value after 5 years — #2007 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Century 30 Express retains an estimated 69% of its value after five years, ranking #2007 of 5780 boats we track. That is 7 points above the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Century 30 Express sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $383,697 it falls to around $265,518 by year five — a five-year loss near $118,179, about $64.76 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Century 30 Express bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
