Per VINdown's modeling, the Dusky 28XL retains an estimated 71% of its value after five years, ranking #1588 of 5915 boats we track. That is 5 points above the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Dusky 28XL sheds about 26% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $115,000 it falls to around $81,764 by year five — a five-year loss near $33,236, about $18.21 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Dusky 28XL bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
