Per VINdown's modeling, the J C Spirit 242 TT retains an estimated 68% of its value after five years, ranking #2453 of 5915 boats we track. That is 2 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 J C Spirit 242 TT sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $37,714 it falls to around $25,570 by year five — a five-year loss near $12,144, about $6.65 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used J C Spirit 242 TT bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
