Monterey 295 SY Cruiser Depreciation & Resale Value

Monterey 295 SY keeps an estimated 54% of its value after 5 years — #5601 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Monterey 295 SY retains an estimated 54% of its value after five years, ranking #5601 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Monterey 295 SY sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $165,686 it falls to around $90,133 by year five — a five-year loss near $75,553, about $41.40 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Monterey 295 SY bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
