Per VINdown's modeling, the Shockwave Custom Skier Open Bow retains an estimated 59% of its value after five years, ranking #4856 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 7 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Shockwave Custom Skier Open Bow sheds about 32% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $132,879 it falls to around $78,265 by year five — a five-year loss near $54,614, about $29.93 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Shockwave Custom Skier Open Bow bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
