Per VINdown's modeling, the Essex Performance Vortex BR retains an estimated 49% of its value after five years, ranking #5738 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 17 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Essex Performance Vortex BR sheds about 4% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $116,707 it falls to around $73,465 by year five — a five-year loss near $43,242, about $23.69 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Essex Performance Vortex BR bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
