South Bay S224FCR keeps an estimated 56% of its value after 5 years — #5467 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the South Bay S224FCR retains an estimated 56% of its value after five years, ranking #5467 of 5780 boats we track. That trails the 62% five-year average for Pontoon in its class by 6 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the South Bay S224FCR sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $30,455 it falls to around $21,228 by year five — a five-year loss near $9,227, about $5.06 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used South Bay S224FCR bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
