J C Spirit 262 keeps an estimated 70% of its value after 5 years — #1739 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the J C Spirit 262 retains an estimated 70% of its value after five years, ranking #1739 of 5915 boats we track. That is 4 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 262 sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $27,821 it falls to around $19,558 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,263, about $4.53 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used J C Spirit 262 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
