Yamaha AR250 keeps an estimated 78% of its value after 5 years — #430 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha AR250 retains an estimated 78% of its value after five years, ranking #430 of 5915 boats we track. That is 12 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 AR250 sheds about 12% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $78,949 it falls to around $61,974 by year five — a five-year loss near $16,975, about $9.30 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Yamaha AR250 bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
