Zodiac Bayrunner 500 PVC keeps an estimated 73% of its value after 5 years — #1242 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Zodiac Bayrunner 500 PVC retains an estimated 73% of its value after five years, ranking #1242 of 5915 boats we track. That is 7 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 Zodiac Bayrunner 500 PVC sheds about 5% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $13,212 it falls to around $9,644 by year five — a five-year loss near $3,568, about $1.96 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Zodiac Bayrunner 500 PVC bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
