Per VINdown's modeling, the Chaparral 250 Suncoast retains an estimated 66% of its value after five years, ranking #3043 of 5915 boats we track. That is roughly in line with the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class.
Most of the loss lands early: the Chaparral 250 Suncoast sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $116,112 it falls to around $76,169 by year five — a five-year loss near $39,943, about $21.89 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Chaparral 250 Suncoast bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
