Cougar South Bay 180 LP FO keeps an estimated 58% of its value after 5 years — #5078 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Cougar South Bay 180 LP FO retains an estimated 58% of its value after five years, ranking #5078 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 12 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Cougar South Bay 180 LP FO sheds about 10% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $43,755 it falls to around $25,421 by year five — a five-year loss near $18,334, about $10.05 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Cougar South Bay 180 LP FO bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
