Starcraft Fishmaster 196 keeps an estimated 72% of its value after 5 years — #1415 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Starcraft Fishmaster 196 retains an estimated 72% of its value after five years, ranking #1415 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 Starcraft Fishmaster 196 sheds about 21% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $46,031 it falls to around $33,050 by year five — a five-year loss near $12,981, about $7.11 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Starcraft Fishmaster 196 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
