Per VINdown's modeling, the Release 230 DC Hardtop retains an estimated 63% of its value after five years, ranking #3455 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 3 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Release 230 DC Hardtop sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $113,980 it falls to around $72,263 by year five — a five-year loss near $41,717, about $22.86 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Release 230 DC Hardtop bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
