Calculating the worth of your boat requires a thorough assessment of several key factors, including its age, condition, size, make, and model. Additionally, the value is influenced by the equipment on board, any upgrades or modifications made, market demand, and recent sales data for similar vessels.
Unlike car valuations, which have standardized resources like the Kelley Blue Book, there is no equivalent “blue book for boats.” Determining a boat’s value can be more complex due to the variety of factors involved and the lack of a universal pricing guide. For this reason, Kelley Blue Book recommends enlisting the help of a professional marine consultant with credentials from recognized organizations such as The Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors (SAMS) and the National Association of Marine Surveyors (NAMS). These professionals are trained to assess the unique characteristics of each boat and provide a precise valuation.
