Cobalt R7 keeps an estimated 58% of its value after 5 years — #5262 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Cobalt R7 retains an estimated 58% of its value after five years, ranking #5262 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class by 5 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Cobalt R7 sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $153,017 it falls to around $87,984 by year five — a five-year loss near $65,033, about $35.63 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Cobalt R7 bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
