Most of the loss lands early: the Dusky 278 Cuddy Side Steering sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $64,740 it falls to around $56,550 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,190, about $4.49 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Dusky 278 Cuddy Side Steering bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
