I'm looking at getting a new boat and one of my considerations is depreciation and resale value. I did a quick comparison of resale values at nadaguides.com for a SANTE, an X-2 and a Mobius LSV--all 2007 models (~4 years old).
After 4 years the X-2 is only worth 61% ($36,830) of it's original MSRP ($60,370) , the Nautique is worth 65%($40,570) of it's original MSRP ($62,012) and the Moomba is worth 77% ($28,580) of it's original MSRP ($36,995).
In some ways I'm surprised by this--I would expect more expensive boats to be better built, more reliable and therefore have better resale value. Looking at the depreciation values tends to make me think they may just be overpriced. Anyone owned a Moomba and an X-2 or Nautique that would care to chime in? Are they better quality or just overpriced?
