Charger 797 keeps an estimated 60% of its value after 5 years — #4535 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Charger 797 retains an estimated 60% of its value after five years, ranking #4535 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 6 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Charger 797 sheds about 16% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $56,075 it falls to around $33,925 by year five — a five-year loss near $22,150, about $12.14 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Charger 797 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

Around 1 year old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
