Cobalt CS22 keeps an estimated 60% of its value after 5 years — #4424 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Cobalt CS22 retains an estimated 60% of its value after five years, ranking #4424 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class by 2 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Cobalt CS22 sheds about 18% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $102,364 it falls to around $61,930 by year five — a five-year loss near $40,434, about $22.16 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Cobalt CS22 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

From about $102,364 when new it drops to roughly $61,930 after five years — a loss near $40,434 (60% 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.
