Charger 176 keeps an estimated 66% of its value after 5 years — #2791 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Charger 176 retains an estimated 66% of its value after five years, ranking #2791 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 4 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Charger 176 sheds about 15% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $25,640 it falls to around $16,999 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,641, about $4.73 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Charger 176 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

It keeps an estimated 66% of its value after five years — better than most among the 5780 boats VINdown tracks (ranked #2791).
From about $25,640 when new it drops to roughly $16,999 after five years — a loss near $8,641 (66% of its value retained).
Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
