Excel 1960VSC keeps an estimated 73% of its value after 5 years — #1209 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Excel 1960VSC retains an estimated 73% of its value after five years, ranking #1209 of 5780 boats we track. That is 3 points above the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Excel 1960VSC sheds about 22% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $15,777 it falls to around $11,501 by year five — a five-year loss near $4,276, about $2.34 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Excel 1960VSC bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
