Questions about the 1981 Pearson 365

How much is a 1981 Pearson 365 worth?

A 1981 Pearson 365 is worth about £23,000 in today's asking prices, most likely between £20,000 and £29,000. Based on 15 comparable boats built between 1978 and 1982, 6 of them in 1981.

What do 1981 Pearson 365s ask?

The 6 boats built in 1981 that we observed asked a median of £21,000 in today's prices. Each boat is counted once, at its latest asking price; these are asking prices, not sale prices.

Is a 1981 Pearson 365 cheaper than a 1982?

About the same: on this model's age curve a year of age moves the asking price by less than 1% (fitted on 21 boats). The gap between individual boats is often larger, because hours, VAT status and where the boat lies move the price too.

How much will it lose next year?

Nothing measurable: on our curve a year of age moves the asking price by less than 1%. That rate is fitted on 21 boats across the whole run, not a forecast of the market.

Are these sold prices?

No. Every figure here is built from asking prices seen on public listings. Boats usually sell for less than they ask; we do not yet measure by how much, so we never print a sold price as ours.
