Per VINdown's modeling, the Monterey M205 retains an estimated 63% of its value after five years, ranking #3636 of 5780 boats we track. That is roughly in line with the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class.

Most of the loss lands early: the Monterey M205 sheds about 26% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $74,971 it falls to around $47,081 by year five — a five-year loss near $27,890, about $15.28 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Monterey M205 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
