Yamaha VX Deluxe Bowrider Depreciation & Resale Value

Yamaha VX Deluxe keeps an estimated 76% of its value after 5 years — #805 of 5780 boats VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha VX Deluxe retains an estimated 76% of its value after five years, ranking #805 of 5780 boats we track. That is 9 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 VX Deluxe sheds about 2% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $11,825 it falls to around $10,191 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,634, about $0.90 a day in depreciation.

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