Per VINdown's modeling, the Sea Chaser 23 LX retains an estimated 58% of its value after five years, ranking #5008 of 5780 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 Sea Chaser 23 LX sheds about 20% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $46,274 it falls to around $27,024 by year five — a five-year loss near $19,250, about $10.55 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Sea Chaser 23 LX bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
