Lowe SF194 keeps an estimated 59% of its value after 5 years — #4878 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lowe SF194 retains an estimated 59% of its value after five years, ranking #4878 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 71% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 11 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Lowe SF194 sheds about 16% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $30,895 it falls to around $18,320 by year five — a five-year loss near $12,575, about $6.89 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Lowe SF194 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
