Scout 231 XS CC keeps an estimated 69% of its value after 5 years — #1979 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Scout 231 XS CC retains an estimated 69% of its value after five years, ranking #1979 of 5780 boats we track. That is roughly in line with the 70% five-year average for Fishing in its class.
Most of the loss lands early: the Scout 231 XS CC sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $64,669 it falls to around $44,815 by year five — a five-year loss near $19,854, about $10.88 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Scout 231 XS CC bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
