Dargel 240 keeps an estimated 58% of its value after 5 years — #5060 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Dargel 240 retains an estimated 58% of its value after five years, ranking #5060 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Dargel 240 sheds about 27% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $77,726 it falls to around $45,236 by year five — a five-year loss near $32,490, about $17.80 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Dargel 240 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
