Per VINdown's modeling, the Shearwater 250XTE Carolina LTD CC retains an estimated 62% of its value after five years, ranking #4202 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 71% five-year average for Fishing in its class by 9 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Shearwater 250XTE Carolina LTD CC sheds about 29% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $255,000 it falls to around $156,825 by year five — a five-year loss near $98,175, about $53.79 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Shearwater 250XTE Carolina LTD CC bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
