Per VINdown's modeling, the Starcraft Star Step 221 retains an estimated 56% of its value after five years, ranking #5660 of 5915 boats we track. That trails the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class by 11 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Starcraft Star Step 221 sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $55,222 it falls to around $30,703 by year five — a five-year loss near $24,519, about $13.44 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Starcraft Star Step 221 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
