Each line is the middle of the cited range, to the nearest fifty pounds. Depreciation is a year of age on each model's published curve, at its Gauge Value, and stays out of the totals.

The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 has no published depreciation curve, so its depreciation is withheld.

The Beneteau Oceanis 48's asking prices are about level with age on its curve (under 1% a year), so no depreciation figure is printed.

Berth is left out of both totals: for the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519, no cited berthing figure for that region for a boat of 15 m or more.

Questions

Which is cheaper, the Beneteau Oceanis 48 or the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519?

At the same age the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 is cheaper: the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 asks 18% less than the Beneteau Oceanis 48 across 4 shared build years. Their Gauge Values, the median asking prices of all the boats we observed whatever their age, are £210,000 and £166,500.

Which holds its value better?

We can't say yet. The Beneteau Oceanis 48's asking prices are about level with age, but the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 has no published depreciation curve: we fit one from at least 20 boats across six build years and publish it only when the fit holds. We have 13 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 boats across 7 build years.

Which spends less time on the market?

Boats of the Beneteau Oceanis 48 had been listed a median of 868 days when we last saw them, against 215 days for the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519. That is time listed so far, not time to sell, which we don't measure yet. 33% of the Beneteau Oceanis 48 boats we saw 14 or more days apart cut their asking price, against 40% of the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519 boats.

How do you compare them like for like?

We compare boats of the same build year. For each of the 4 years both models have boats in, we take the ratio of their median asking prices in today's prices, then pool the years, giving more weight to years with more boats on both sides. The figure is Indicative because the thinner side has 9 boats in those years. The Gauge Values compare the whole fleets instead, so they mix boats of different ages.
