Most of the loss lands early: the Starcraft Delta 188 FXS sheds about 20% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $35,750 it falls to around $25,954 by year five — a five-year loss near $9,796, about $5.37 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Starcraft Delta 188 FXS bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
