Yamaha EX Bowrider Depreciation & Resale Value

Yamaha EX keeps an estimated 77% of its value after 5 years — #631 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha EX retains an estimated 77% of its value after five years, ranking #631 of 5780 boats we track. That is 10 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 EX sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $7,799 it falls to around $5,974 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,825, about $1.00 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Yamaha EX bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
