Most of the loss lands early: the Yamaha 255 Fish Sport E sheds about 2% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $94,446 it falls to around $83,360 by year five — a five-year loss near $11,086, about $6.07 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Yamaha 255 Fish Sport E bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
