Sanger 212 SL keeps an estimated 63% of its value after 5 years — #3455 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Sanger 212 SL 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 Sanger 212 SL sheds about 17% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $124,214 it falls to around $78,751 by year five — a five-year loss near $45,463, about $24.91 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Sanger 212 SL bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

It keeps an estimated 63% of its value after five years — worse than most among the 5780 boats VINdown tracks (ranked #3455).
From about $124,214 when new it drops to roughly $78,751 after five years — a loss near $45,463 (63% of its value retained).
Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
