Lowe SS230 CL keeps an estimated 56% of its value after 5 years — #5467 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lowe SS230 CL retains an estimated 56% of its value after five years, ranking #5467 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 14 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Lowe SS230 CL sheds about 4% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $42,858 it falls to around $27,857 by year five — a five-year loss near $15,001, about $8.22 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Lowe SS230 CL bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
