Yamaha 195 S Bowrider Depreciation & Resale Value

Yamaha 195 S keeps an estimated 79% of its value after 5 years — #318 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha 195 S retains an estimated 79% of its value after five years, ranking #318 of 5780 boats we track. That is 13 points above the 66% five-year average for Bowrider in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Yamaha 195 S sheds about 3% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $48,024 it falls to around $41,882 by year five — a five-year loss near $6,142, about $3.37 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Yamaha 195 S bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
