Ribcraft AF 14 keeps an estimated 58% of its value after 5 years — #5302 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Ribcraft AF 14 retains an estimated 58% of its value after five years, ranking #5302 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Ribcraft AF 14 sheds about 13% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $19,285 it falls to around $11,127 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,158, about $4.47 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Ribcraft AF 14 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
