A year of ownership
Each at its Gauge Value, on a South Coast marina berth, 44 engine hours a year (the median of 103 UK-listed sailing boats that report hours). An estimate in pounds from published rates, not a quote.
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 Westerly Oceanlord 41 has no published depreciation curve, so its depreciation is withheld.
Fuel is left out of both totals: for the Westerly Oceanlord 41, fewer than three of its listings give the engine power.
The totals differ by less than the two berth bands do, so neither is marked cheaper to keep.

Questions
Which is cheaper, the Pacific Seacraft 37 or the Westerly Oceanlord 41?
At the same age the Westerly Oceanlord 41 is cheaper: the Westerly Oceanlord 41 asks 21% less than the Pacific Seacraft 37 across 8 shared build years. Their Gauge Values, the median asking prices of all the boats we observed whatever their age, are £80,500 and £71,500.
Which holds its value better?
We can't say yet. The Pacific Seacraft 37 loses about 4.3% of its asking price a year of age, but the Westerly Oceanlord 41 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 10 Westerly Oceanlord 41 boats across 8 build years.
Which spends less time on the market?
Boats of the Pacific Seacraft 37 had been listed a median of 36 days when we last saw them; too few Westerly Oceanlord 41 boats were seen on two dates to say. That is time listed so far, not time to sell, which we don't measure yet. 31% of the Pacific Seacraft 37 boats we saw 14 or more days apart cut their asking price; too few Westerly Oceanlord 41 boats were seen that far apart to say.
How do you compare them like for like?
We compare boats of the same build year. For each of the 8 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 10 boats in those years. The Gauge Values compare the whole fleets instead, so they mix boats of different ages.
