Regal 28 Express keeps an estimated 65% of its value after 5 years — #3174 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Regal 28 Express retains an estimated 65% of its value after five years, ranking #3174 of 5780 boats we track. That is 2 points above the 62% five-year average for Cruiser in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Regal 28 Express sheds about 29% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $202,120 it falls to around $130,569 by year five — a five-year loss near $71,551, about $39.21 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Regal 28 Express bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
