Scarab 165 G keeps an estimated 78% of its value after 5 years — #562 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Scarab 165 G retains an estimated 78% of its value after five years, ranking #562 of 5915 boats we track. That is 11 points above the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Scarab 165 G sheds about 4% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $24,433 it falls to around $18,935 by year five — a five-year loss near $5,498, about $3.01 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Scarab 165 G bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
