Which hold value best
Share of asking price lost for each year of age. Shorter is better. The tick marks the same type of boat from other builders. Models need 20 boats across six build years, and a consistent fit, to be ranked.
The Pilot 34 is the only Mainship model with enough boats to rank: it loses 5.3% a year of age.
Against other builders
The five builders whose boats most overlap with Mainship's by type and length, on the same basis.
