Per VINdown's modeling, the Chaparral 21 SSI SKI & Fish retains an estimated 62% of its value after five years, ranking #3969 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 71% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Chaparral 21 SSI SKI & Fish sheds about 28% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $93,365 it falls to around $58,166 by year five — a five-year loss near $35,199, about $19.29 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Chaparral 21 SSI SKI & Fish bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
