Per VINdown's modeling, the Cobia 262 Center Console retains an estimated 64% of its value after five years, ranking #3424 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 71% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 7 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Cobia 262 Center Console sheds about 17% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $205,765 it falls to around $131,483 by year five — a five-year loss near $74,282, about $40.70 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Cobia 262 Center Console bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
