Per VINdown's modeling, the Hustler PT 21 retains an estimated 48% of its value after five years, ranking #5749 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 18 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Hustler PT 21 sheds about 13% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $84,255 it falls to around $40,695 by year five — a five-year loss near $43,560, about $23.87 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Hustler PT 21 bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
