Skeeter SX230 keeps an estimated 71% of its value after 5 years — #1578 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Skeeter SX230 retains an estimated 71% of its value after five years, ranking #1578 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 Skeeter SX230 sheds about 22% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $89,500 it falls to around $63,455 by year five — a five-year loss near $26,045, about $14.27 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Skeeter SX230 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

From about $89,500 when new it drops to roughly $63,455 after five years — a loss near $26,045 (71% of its value retained).
Around 1 year old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
